Week 5 - Let's Talk School

School Uniforms - Yes or No?

I took the image by myself.

     Should schools have uniform or not? It has been a topic of debate in schools everywhere. We also had a class debate on this topic a few days back. The points I presented in favor of the topic are listed below:
      
​     In my opinion I think schools should have uniform and there are lots of reasons for that.

     Uniforms help students get easily recognized.

    They keep students stay focused on their education not their clothes.

    They enhances school pride, unity and community spirit.

    They help you keep more disciplined.

    They help you get ready for school fast in the morning.

    They help you get spotted easily in outside school tours.
   
    And they also help you save money that you will be spending on buying clothes for school every other month.

    To those who say 'No' to uniforms, I would say that school uniforms reduce peer pressure and bullying and they also help parents save time and money. How? You will be spending a lot of time on buying presentable (or expensive) clothes. Of course everybody wants to look nice, so you will be dressing yourself the best way you can. But for poor kids who can’t afford nice clothes, they will get bullied wearing the same outfit again and again. While uniforms look all the same. Also you won’t waste your time, energy, and money going for school clothes shopping. You just need to buy two-three pairs of uniforms and you’re good for the rest of the year. There are even some schools that give you free uniforms.
   
     To those who say that it takes away students' right to free expression, I would say that you can express yourself through many other ways like your personality traits.

    In conclusion I would say, I prefer uniform.They are comfortable, inexpensive and easy to wear. You can just show off your wardrobe after school if you want. 

     Please comment what do you guys think.
