School Uniforms: Yay or Nay

Whether you hate them or love them, there is an ongoing debate about them. So let’s weigh out the pros and cons of both sides.

If you live in the UK you are probably required wear school uniforms but if you live in the USA you don’t have to wear school uniforms. (What a lucky bunch). So far 25% of primary schools wear school uniforms and about 10% of secondary schools wear school uniforms. 

Yay School Uniforms:

Well first of all whether you like it or not students look more untied, together. They make the school look like they have a better image. It also takes the pressure off parents from buying trendy clothes to keep children satisfied. Lastly money is being saved i.e. resulting in more pocket money. (Yay!!!)

                      Nay School Uniforms:

Students won’t be able to express themselves, feeling left out. It can influence harmful cliques and isolate peers. (Not a good idea). Tbh (to be honest) no child feels like they’re being heard about school uniforms and can rebel against their peers and teachers.

Yay for non-School Uniforms

Children won’t have to find different ways to express themselves. So you won’t have to worry as much about children rebelling against you or the school I have just one question to whoever’s reading this. Would you feel better in your own clothes or uniforms? Just think about that.

Nay for non-School Uninforms

Children take more time getting ready in the morning. I know I would. I mean (if you’re a girl) think of doing your hair, putting on makeup, (if you do that) and finally picking out an outfit in the morning. Absolute chaos.  Children are more exposed to bullying, with children always competing to see who has the better this or that, leading them to become more insecure. Children can also feel that they can ditch schools because they’re not going to be recognised by anyone for their uniforms do they can easily get away with it.

So are you Yay or Nay?

Have a great day today, tomorrow and every single day <3
