Advantages and Disadvantages
of Wearing Uniform in Schools
Almost every school in the world orders the students
to wear uniform. Wearing uniform has been settled by government and the
students must follow the rule. Yet, it seems like not all of the students agree
with the rule. Even, some students think that uniform will burdened them, but
other students think that it will give positive effect. Thus, the advantages
and disadvantages of wearing uniform in schools will be discussed in this essay.
Now, let us start about the advantages of wearing
uniform in schools. By wearing uniform, the students will be seen more neat and
polite. The uniform can make students’ live simpler, and they would no longer
have to decide what to wear every morning. The students who wear uniform will
more concerns to their school and lesson. The uniform can make students fell
more proud of their school and consider that the school is a special place for
learning.
In addition, wearing uniform can reduce violence in
school. According to a recent survey in Hillsborough County, Florida, incidents
of school violence dropped by 50 per cent, attendance and test scores improved,
and students’ suspensions declined approximately 30 per cent after school
uniforms were introduced. By wearing uniform the status of students will be
equal right, and there will not be seen differences among rich students and
poor students. Wearing uniform also will useful to keep reputation of the school. The students
will look well-ordered, neat, and more discipline with uniform. Wearing uniform
also can differentiate the levels of the schools.
On the other hand, the students who wear uniform
cannot express their own style. Without uniform, there will be seen difference
status among rich students and poor students. For instance, rich students feel
like they have higher social status through their clothes. For this reason,
they often bully other students who do not have as nice dress as them. This thing
can make affray among the students. As a consequence, it will unsettle students
in the school, and disturb learning process.
Moreover, wearing uniform will become pressure for the
students especially for poor students, because they must spend much money to
buy it. Besides, if the students do not wear uniform, they will look not neat,
instead unorganized. Also, it will not be seen uniformity among students.
Without uniform, the students may over dress. Even, they will more concern to
their appearance rather than their lesson. At last, if the students over dress,
it will make their school be ridiculed by society, because the school will be
seen like a playground rather than a school.
In conclude, there are many advantages and
disadvantages of wearing uniform in schools. In one hand, by wearing uniform,
will make the students have equal level. It also will reduce violence in
school. In other side, wearing uniform can make pressure to the students,
because they have to spend much money. They also cannot express their own
style. However, it depends on the schools, whether the students are ordered to wear uniform or not.
According to me, it will be better if the schools order the students to wear
uniform, because it will be seen more polite, neat, and well-ordered. It also
will make equal level among rich students and poor students.
