PROS AND CONS ABOUT SCHOOL UNIFORMS

Over the last decades, school uniforms have been a very debatable issue and there are many different viewpoints about wearing school uniforms.
Some people think that a student in a school uniform will take education more seriously.
Others believe that school uniforms help to decrease fighting and gang violence. On most occasions, fights start over clothing and brand accessories.
Another argument is that school uniforms cost less money to parents than brand name clothes.
Lastly, Some people say that student uniforms contribute to the building of school spirit and unity.

According to me, wearing uniform it's good because it's smart and pupils all look the same so don't have difference.
Secondly, parents don't buy other clothes.
Finally, I think wearing an uniform at school reduces racket.

isisI'm for uniforms, because they keep pupils tidy and smart, they stop unfair comparisons between rich or poorer students. Uniforms make choosing your clothes in the morning easier, but i'm against uniforms because they don't allow teenagers to express their individual personality.

I'm pros the school uniform because uniforms keep pupils tidy and smart and aren't ugly or outmoded. The uniforms allow the teenagers to express their individual personalities with a colorfull suit or tie for exemple. I think the uniforms are good for discipline and give a serious tone to the school. But I cons the rule about the jacket in summer: We have to wear a jacket even in summer ! It's to hot ! VV 2TH

At the begining of the years, I changed clothes at the end of the class. But now I'm used to wear the uniform, and I keep it all day. I take less time to choose my clothes in the morning. First, we think that people look at us in the street because we are dressed differently. But it is only an impression. In uniform people do not notice us. One might think that the uniform at our age it is impossible, but it is a rule! I like the uniform because everyone is dressed the same. I am proud! M.T

.It does not smart because we should not rely only on the appearance.

I am for the school uniform because there isn’t discrimination between pupils. Furthermore, I consider that the respect of given rules is a good thing. Lastly, I think that uniforms are elegant.
Oppositely, I am against the school uniforms because I can’t run very fast wearing it. Besides, it’s difficult to iron properly and it’s hard to wash. Lastly, wearing a suit on summer when it’s hot is unpleasant.
