Conclusion

6. School Uniform, Another Good Lesson
School uniform is special clothes worn
by all students of a particular school. The
uniform of a school may differ from others.
Why should schools use uniforms? Below
are some reasons.
First of all, Notre Dame’s Department
of Sociology produced a study in 1998
concerning school uniforms. Their findings
using 10th grade students showed that
uniforms have no direct effect on
“substance abuse, behavioral problems or
attendance.” It also claimed a negative
effect on student achievements for those
students considered ‘pro-school’.

7. Secondly, uniform helps to create a strong sense school
ethos and a sense of belonging to a particular community.
As such it promotes discipline and helps to drive up
academic standards, which is why a uniform is often
adopted by schools which are being reopened with a fresh
start after being classified as failing.
Finally, uniform acts as a social leveler, under
which all students are equal in the eyes of the school
and of each other. In institutions without uniform
students are often competitive and worry endlessly
about their appearance and the clothes they should
wear. Pupils without expensive designer clothes and
trainers may be singled out as social outcasts, or
stigmatized as being from poor backgrounds. For
these reasons many parents prefer uniforms as they
save them money on buying clothes for school wear.
Considering the findings, schools should implement
the uniform as their identity. The government should
also publish some kind of rule which makes uniform
compulsory for schools.
