Well it’s based on different opinions . Let’s see some of the
advantages well first if it’s mandatory for everyone everyone will be dressed in a respectable manner as well as neatly and everyone will be dressed the same causing no ill feelings for the less fortunate for their extravagance in dressing how ever they want to.
In recent studies from parenting science their research states that If
everyone wears the same thing, it might foster a sense of group identity, and help conceal socioeconomic differences between individuals. In addition, uniforms eliminate “competitive dressing,” which ought to reduce levels of conflict and distraction.As a result, kids are less likely to misbehave, and more likely to focus on learning. But if we look on the other hand we could argue that restricting students to a one way dressing could potentially not allow the student to fully express themselves hence “freedom of expression”.
Also having uniforms mandatory could be costly for the less
fortunate and it also could be a sort of type of policing causing mental issues to students to be restricted to certain type of clothing.
Proponents argue that students will pay more attention to their
classwork if they aren’t preoccupied with fashion, and that they’ll be better behaved. Meanwhile, school administrators say uniforms help eliminate gang-related styles and logos. They also make it easier to spot a stranger on campus.also wearing uniforms creates a respectful atmosphere around the school. It also signifies all the students to be from one community creating a wonderful inviroment. Hence also causing Barriers between students observing their class mates have a better dress style then them which then could lead to disunity.
Well as argued it’s a both way option hence been pros and cons in both having uniform mandatory or not.
