“School Uniforms”

Some high schools require all students to wear school uniforms. Other high schools permit students to decide what to wear to school. Which of these two school policies do you think is better? Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
--------------------------------------

School uniforms are most common in primary and secondary schools in many nations. They are the most widely and popularly known as student uniform. Some other types of these include uniforms worn by students participating in higher vocational training, such as in health care occupations.

Traditionally, school uniforms have been subdued and professional. Boys' uniforms often consist of dark colored trousers and light colored shirt and a tie. Girls' uniforms vary greatly from country to country and schooling systems there, but typically girl’s uniforms consist of a dress or a blouse worn either with a skirt, culottes or under a pinafore. Gender-specific uniforms have been a point of contention, with some schools permitting female students to choose either skirts or trousers while still requiring male students to wear trousers. The use of a blazer or suit-like jacket for either gender is also fairly common, especially in cold weather.

School dress codes dictate what cannot be worn by any student, such as sheer or midriff-baring tops, clothing that advertises tobacco or alcohol or the T-shirts having arousing captions like sexy, slippery while wet, kiss me twice, hot stuff and many alike. Such type of dresses diverts attention of fellow students and cause disturbances in studies.

In conclusion, uniforms are the sign of discipline that is most important in education field. Uniforms are used in army, police, navy, air force, and many more. Uniforms create a feeling of unity, oneness and fellowship. Uniforms elevate and boost up the spirits hence uniforms are used in forces and sport events too. Hence uniforms in schools, colleges and universities must be welcome.
