There can be no doubt that the traditional school uniform has its advantages. For a start, it makes all students equal – they can’t compete to be the most fashionable, to wear nicer clothes than their peers. Moreover, school uniforms are inexpensive, saving parents money. It’s true that if children didn’t have to wear uniforms, they might have more freedom of expression. It might promote creativity and originality. There is also the fact that school uniforms are not always very comfortable to wear. However, I think all students must be treated as equals. Therefore, my view on school uniforms, and whether we need them, is very clear.
