It appears that is also the reality of some of the parents. If parents are bothered about education send the kids to school dressed correctly,that way it's a non issue.

Ducky1 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 willman - I agree some parents are to blame for not providing the correct uniform but when it comes to the wrong colour grey that is just stupid especially when the school tells you which supplier to use and you buy them from there.

The uniform is to make everyone look equal and give a sense of collective identity, but this only works if everyone has the same quality garments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The uniform is to make everyone look equal and give a sense of collective identity, but this only works if everyone has the same quality garments If everyone wears the same and branded items are not permitted, children from poorer families are less likely to get bullied because they don't have the latest designer gear. Also the wearing of a uniform prepares children for working life, where they will probably have to follow a dress code. I remember when I was at school (not that long ago ) we all used to try to push the boundaries on the uniform rules sometimes, but if we were caught out we took the punishment (usually a yellow slip or detention), we didn't go complaining to the local newspaper.

At least I'm hoping it was! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
