School Uniforms
By Bree Griffith
Problem Statement:
• We don’t have a school uniform and I think we should have them because it makes the school look better.
Why should we have a school uniform?
• There are lots of reasons why we should have a school uniform…• Prevents gangs• Decreases conflict and theft because of clothing labels – stops competition• Helps create more discipline• Teachers don’t need to be clothes police• Reduces distractions for kids• Creates a sense of community• Helps schools recognise who is and isn’t part of the school – makes visitors
obvious• Looks nicer and tidier• They can be cheaper for parents• They can save time in the morning because people know what to wear.
Why shouldn’t we have a school uniform?
• Some people think we shouldn’t have a school uniform because…
• Don’t get to be yourself – look everybody else• Can be really expensive for parents & you can’t
use outside of school like your normal clothes• Can be a problem for some religions• There is no proof that it helps learning.• Lose individuality and creativity
