SHOULD STUDENTS WEAR SCHOOL UNIPVAM OR HOT?

All over the world, the majority of students whether in government., private or mublic schools wear uniform though the type of urifora differs from school to school, There are advantages and disadvantages to this syat..

The advantages to be gained by the wearing of school uniform are many. Neatness can be demanded of a student in uniform and this in itself helps to give the student a pride in personal tidiness both in school and at home, No difference can be seen in one-student from a-poor-honey and the one from 3 more well-to-do really when both are in uniform. This gatea emberre Aasment for the poorer help and prevents chowding-off in the wealthier ons. Students are recognisable by their uniforms and ao are tea inclined to get up to mischief when travelling to and from school because of the fear of their behaviour being reported to the school authorities and bringing punishment for the students and disgrace on the school's reputation. tion, many young people have no idea of how to dress suitably and, if sta un fons were not demanded, the teacher would be faced with a class of students wearing an alarming assortment of clothes, ranging from sweater and and to party dresses Naturally, there are also disadvantages in

wearing school uniform.

The disadvantages are felt more saverely by parents with several ch- fldren attending different schools and those with restristad incomes, When more than one child has to be provided with a school uniform and mach one needs a different type of uniform, the expanse is very great, for as sach grows out of his/her uniform it becomes useless as there is no one else in the family attending the same school to whom the clothes can be handed down, Paying for a uniform plus school fees and school stationery places a heavy burden on poorer parents especially as the uniform has to be kept spick and Japan so the son or daughter has to be provided with other clothes for out-of-school activities. It is also a problem for those who live in the more crowded districts of a guy to keep their children's uniforma clean especially if they cowhite shirts, blouses or dressta benause their homea are surrounder b
