There has long been discussion on the necessity of school uniforms. In this essay I will describe the pros and cons of wearing uniforms at schools, and will show my vision of which of the options is right.
Those people who consider uniforms necessary say that by wearing the same clothes children get much more than they lose. First, there are no arguments and hesitations as to what to wear in the morning. It really saves a great deal of time. Second, it teaches children of what dress code is and what clothes are appropriate for serious activities. It influences the perception of school greatly and disciplines people. So, it is a way of showing pupils what is going to wait for them in the work atmosphere and teaches them how to be tidy and neat. Others claim that school uniform limitsthe students’ self-realization and doesn’t allow them to show their character. It also exerts pressure over children and limits their possibilities.
In my opinion, school uniform has to be obligatory. I understand that in some perspective, it is a limiting factor for them, but I don’t consider it to be critical. The necessity to show children how they should behave in the adult life is much more important. Besides, in this way they will understand that it is possible and necessary to realize their opportunities in the spheres other than their appearance. They will soon stop being distracted by it and will focus on educationonly.
