I Had Or Have To Wear A School Uniform

@hunkalove That's unfair - to Nazis.

@Sharon - yeah I can see that, but in general I think a uniform makes sense

@KimberleyAnne I disagree. It stifles individuality and does nothing to improve educational standards. UK teachers waste far too much time checking students are wearing the right colour socks (yes, seriously!) instead of teaching. That's why standards are much higher in the rest of Europe where there aren't school uniforms.

@suzie1960 Every school has some form or manner of accreditation. Have you ever been to a school? Why are you so insistent on promoting your version of the truth anyway? Whether formal or informal, every school follow some norms or code about what is culturally acceptable dress. What is your problem?

@MarkPaul That may be true in your jurisdiction but that's not the same as the whole world and it's certainly not true where I am. [b]As I said, I have visited a school where trackboy's mode of attire would be acceptable.[/b]

Why are you so insistent that you know the policies of every school in the world when it's patently obvious you don't? What do you hope to achieve?

@rob19 Would that be Summerhill School? http://www.summerhillschool.co.uk/

@SW-User [quote]It's just a uniform.[/quote]

@suzie1960 I never understood the reason for short pants for boys, other than in warm weather.

@chrisCA There isn't one, it's nothing more than control freakery.

@Psycho They're a rip-off because they have to be bought from the school approved supplier.
