Daily scribbles on writing and living. How to get rid of cobwebs in my brain. CLOSED. |
This week in the UK, police were called on approximately 50 students because they were wearing improper uniforms. Should students be required to wear uniforms in schools, for any reason? And should these uniforms require very specific standards, or should families be allowed a little leeway regarding lesser items like accessories, jewelry, and shoes? Have you ever had to wear a uniform to class? How would you feel if you had to purchase an expensive set of clothing for your child to wear, only to be told it wasn't enough, or that he or she was wearing something improperly?(30-Day BC) I read the reasons why English kids wear uniforms in the first place are three fold. To remove the need for parents to spend out big money on the latest brand names and to avoid the embarrassment of students whose parents do not have the money to keep up with the latest in overpriced fashion. Secondly to preserve a working environment where students can concentrate. To encourage a sense of membership of and pride in an educational institution. Day FIFTY "Give It 100!" |
