Uniform helps students concentrate on studying instead of clothes. Most of the students naturally think about fashion. Some parents spoil their kids about clothes. They buy the expensive clothes or the electronic devices to encourage their kids to study hard. When they have the value clothes, they will not chat with friends about study. They are proud of themselves to have the expensive clothes on them. On the other hand, if they wear uniform at school, they do not have something to say about fashion. They will concentrate about study because everybody wears the same clothes and the same brand name. For example, if one of their friend have North Face brand, their feeling will think about it. How can I get that or I have to have it. In their age, students need to be attractively from the other people.…

Statistics show that students who wear uniforms make better grades. The students become less distracted because instead of paying attention to what they are wearing or others they can actually listen.

School uniforms have many disadvantages for children and families. From the time we are old enough to communicate, everyone tells us to express ourselves and be ourselves. How can we do that if we are required to wear uniforms to school? Chanel Iman once said, “[D]on’t be afraid to express yourself through fashion.” With school uniforms, kids can’t express themselves except through words and actions. Some students are shy and use their fashion sense to make friends. Also, school uniforms can be costly. Many parents send their children to school in hand-me-downs from older siblings. With uniforms, they need to buy several different uniforms for the 5-day week and as their children grow. Also…
When students obtain a job, there are uniforms at work that they will have to wear. These uniforms are there usually as a safety standard, or to show customers who is working. The sooner students get into the habit of wearing uniforms at school, the easier it will be for them to adjust to the working world. Not to mention, everyone at work will be dressed the same, therefore it is important for students to learn early on that clothing does not shape who they are. Rather, that it is there to make them easily identifiable at work. Lastly, uniforms will keep students clean and organised. Wearing uniforms will help develop great transferable skills, which will be needed in adult life. In conclusion, uniforms will teach students at an early age what it is like to be an…
They say that by using the uniforms it basically prevents all of the bad things that happen in schools from happening, but that’s just not possible. David L. Brunsma, a researcher at the University of Missouri-Columbia, has been studying the use of school uniforms since the year of 1996. His main conclusion of the whole study is that…
Uniforms are said to help students concentrate on the academic aspect of school. Most students need help to concentrate and sometimes thinking about the clothes they are wearing and what others say about them distracts them a lot. Middle schoolers are always trying the newest trends to see if they look good on them. They spend most of their time thinking what they might wear the next day to school and what the kid next to them might say. Uniforms give students room to think about other things that are more important at that moment. They might think about a question on a test or what topic to do on an essay. This policy enables them to give thought to what really matters. Some say there is a correlation between uniforms and test scores. Students show a higher academic achievement when in uniform.(Bodine, 2003.) Bodine said in 2003 that a research done in 1998 showed that uniformed students had significantly higher test scores than those students uniformed. All students want to get good grades because that way their parents do not punish…
In July 19 2009 Dr. Alan Hifler did a study on school uniforms and the effects they had on students. Uniforms have been common in public schools since 1994 and since then the dropout rate for schools that don’t have uniforms have increased. The requirement of school uniforms is a turnaround for students because students would benefit from this. Schools everywhere should bring them back. It is a great idea for schools to enforce a policy on schools because research shows that students can achieve success.…
First of all, uniforms can remove the distraction of symbols that reflect students social status, provide relief from competition for fashion and peer pressure and create equality between more and less wealthy students.

However, as stated previously, school is a place to learn not, not to show off your clothing line and your personal swagger. Clothes don’t pick who you are, wearing the uniforms will show that they are all equal and that no one is better than the other one. So, I believe that wearing the uniforms will beneficial to the school, students and parents. Society must decide if individual expression through clothing is more important than education performance being improved because of uniforms being implemented into the school system. Parents and students should remember that uniforms may be required during school hours. After school students can express their individuality in a way, they dress outside of the…
Many educators do not believe in the positive outcomes of uniforms. They believe it is theory that uniforms will improve behavior and social outcomes because “in reality, they don’t”. (KIDS) One of their thought against uniforms is that uniforms teach children that in order to get along everyone must fit to the same standards. Dressing every student the same gives a false idea that everyone is at the same economic level. Instead, students should be able to notice the difference of social classes in their school, and be able to get along with anyone. Another idea is that uniforms interfere with students’ rights for self-expression and limits them to different knowledge. With uniforms, a student is not able to express what their personality and likes. Also, students who choose their own clothing each school day learn to adapt to shifting social standards and learn skills that will serve them well as adults.…

Bullies usually pick on kids based on what they wear. But what happens when they are wearing the same thing. It leaves less room to get picked on.…
