A shirt, tie and blazer may not be the ingredients for my favourite outfit, but if I were
given the choice, I wouldn't throw away the idea of school uniform. Wearing a uniform is
a badge of pride, creates an identity for a school and is an important part of being a
school student.
"Uniforms show that you are part of an organisation. Wearing it says we're all in this
together," Jason Wing, head teacher at the Neale-Wade academy in Cambridgeshire,
says.
"Also, if you wear your uniform with pride, it means you are half way there to being
respectful, buying into what the organisation is all about.''
Claire Howlette, an English teacher, agrees: "Uniforms give students a sense of belonging
to a particular school and create an identity for the school in the community."
My school is one of many that seem to be reverting to a more formal uniform this
September I will be wearing a shirt and blazer instead of my old jumper and polo shirt. A
number of students have complained about the change, but general opinion is that the
jumpers and polo shirts were "childish".
A school uniform teaches students to dress smartly and take pride in their appearance.
Howlette says: "Uniforms help students to prepare for when they leave school and may
have to dress smartly or wear a uniform."
Some people believe that a school uniform can improve learning by reducing distraction,
sharpening focus on schoolwork and making the classroom a more serious environment,
allowing students to perform better academically.
Perhaps most importantly, a uniform means students don't have to worry about peer
pressure when it comes to their clothes. When everyone is dressed the same, worrying
about what you look like isn't so important. There is no competition about being dressed
in the latest trend, which would put a great deal of financial pressure on students and
parents. Potential bullies have one less target for their insults; it's hard to make fun of
what someone is wearing when you're dressed exactly the same.
In America, where a majority of schools do not have a uniform, roughly 160,000
children miss school every day due to fear of attack or intimidation by other students.
This might not be directly linked to what they're wearing, but having a uniform can be a
safety net for many students who might otherwise suffer from bullying. A strict uniform
gives the impression that rules are strict too, perhaps helping maintain a sense of order
at school.
Although wearing a school uniform is less expensive than buying a whole wardrobe of
outfits, uniform can still be pricey. Many schools have a specific supplier, and wearing
cheaper alternatives can result in punishment if the black skirt you're wearing isn't
exactly the right black skirt. Finding uniform that fits you, especially if you're limited to
one shop, can also be a struggle.
Recently the Liberal Democrats held a conference about the cost of school uniforms
across England. The education minister David Laws is to issue new guidance to end the
practice of using a single uniform supplier, enabling parents to shop around for uniform.
If schools decide to change their uniform, for example with a new emblem or colour,
changes should be restricted to one or two items, preferably with sew-on logos. Changing
from a one-supplier system could help families with the cost of school uniform.
Although it might seem a shame to miss out on those two years of dressing as you like at
school, I welcome the smart dress code. Not only does it make getting dressed each
morning a lot easier, but it sets sixth formers up as role models for younger students,
and that's important.
Macy Vallance, a year-eight student, says: "I like uniforms because everyone is the same
and no one can be left out by the way they are dressed. Our new uniform looks smarter,
which is good."
My uniform might not be what I would wear in my own time, but it gives me a sense of
belonging, takes away the pressure of what to wear and deters the bullies. School
uniform isn't fashionable, but that's exactly why I think it should be here to stay.
Have you ever felt that people judge you based on the way you were dressed?
Did you feel bad asking your parents for more money to buy something that
would make you look cool?I know I have
Have you ever felt that school uniforms are not comfortable and look
bad?I know i have

One school without school uniforms goes on a field trip somewhere and a kid
gets lost so you can find him easy if everyone doesnt wear school uniforms.So if
you are a school with school uniforms and you go on feild trip you will find lost
kids easier because everyone from that school is wearing school uniforms.
- When a kid gets bullied by a bully it is very hard to get him out of that situation
and is very hard to handle but school uniforms will help because if a bully tease
you it usually about what you wear but if you wear school uniforms the bully will
stop because they know that for school uniforms everyone has same.
- Some kids get kicked out which is sad out of school for focusing on their clothes
and what to wear but with school uniforms you wouldnt care because everyone is
wearing same no matter what.So they will be focasing on school.
- Kids that are poor and not good with money are the ones who should
care to go to schools without school uniforms because schools with
school uniforms make you pay for it but public dont so kids who want it
because need clothes but cant because need to pay.
- Kids are sad about school uniforms because they do not like the part
that they cant decorate anything and put creativity in it because one
time a teacher gave the art grade A for designing her clothes so good.
-Kids are sad for wearing school uniforms that are made uncomfortable
to be wearing to school all day.
Thesis statement: I believe school uniforms are good solution: To design the
uniforms with whole school in different designs then vote for best.
Thesis statement: I believe school uniforms are bad solution: make
them comfortable and see if kids like.
homestay. Options, such as these top budget hotels in India, abound. These
days, even the backpacker hostels in India are modern, clean, and welcoming!
3. Indian Hospitality : There's a saying in India, "Athithi Devo Bhava", which
means "the guest is God". Indians consider it a huge honor to have guests in
their home, and go out of their way to please them. There's nothing like Indian
hospitality. And, as a result of the growing popualarity of homestays in India,
there are plenty of opportunities to experience it. Many homestays are far from
the humble abodes you may expect too!
4. Your Perspective Will Be Broadened : India is place that everyone should
visit once in their lives to get out of their comfort zones and get a different
perspective on life. The culture shock in India can be hard to deal with. However,
you'll quickly come to appreciate what you have back home and how fortunate
you really are.
5. Not All Places in India are "Unsafe" : Unfortunately, India has receive a
lot of negative publicity recently in regards to women's safety. Admittedly, India
can be an uncomfortable country for foreign female tourists. However, the good
news is that some parts of India are much more tourist friendly than others. In
that regard, south India is often said to be better than north India, and based on
my experience it is true. I'm hassled much less there than in north India.
6. You'll Be Helping the Economy
People in the tourism industry depend on revenue generated from the peak
season to sustain themselves throughout the rest of the year. By traveling to
India, you'll be helping people keep their businesses alive and families properly
fed. Indians are generally friendly and curious people, so you'll be welcome!
7. Explore Spirituality
India can be very inspiring and refreshing for the soul. Many people come to
India to learn yoga, meditate, or spend time at an ashram. Another moving
experience is to take part in an evening aarti (fire worship) along the Ganges
river at either Rishikesh, Haridwar, or Varanasi.
8. History and Architecture
One of the things I always marvel at in India is the magnificent architecture
found all over the country, and it varies so much where ever you go. Where to
see it? Check out these historical and architectural sites in India and 10 top
monuments in India.
9. The Food
Indian food can take a bit of getting used to for some people, but it really is
worth it. You may be surprised to find that Indian cuisine is vastly different to the
standard fare served up in most Indian restaurants, which is in fact
predominantly north Indian cuisine.
10. Be of Service
India is a very popular destination for voluntourism, and there's no shortage of
organizations that need your help! Many agencies charge volunteers large sums
for placement, but quite a few organizations directly take volunteers.
