School uniforms should be banned

I will ask you some questions and try to attack your arguments. When I mean dress codes I mean with clothes, whit the colours that people want, but with uniforms there aren't dress codes, there are uniform rules. I know boys can wear bracelets of Starwars or something they like, but in some schools is prohibited. When you say students joining to clubs, they can express their self by that activities. But most schools have arts as a subject and also, most schools make debates in class, taking this into account students are already expressing their self. In which other ways can they express their selves for you? Style can be shown by the way people do something, but I am talking about image style, how can people demonstrate their image to others with uniforms? Well, I have to say most of students choose the clothes that they are going to buy at stores, not their parents, so they are just giving options to their parents for them to help them, not to choose by them. For example in my personal case I choose the clothes that I will buy at stores and my mother help me to choose which one to wear, but I already choose them, he is just helping me because I have a lot of options. In which way I am representing my mother? I know students can return uniforms back to stores. But for example in the case of my school (British International School of Barranquilla) on Tuesdays we have to go with a house T-shirt. For the first six months of this year, there where not all the sizes for that T-shirts, so most students had to wear an smaller or bigger size. Do you imagine wearing a size that is not yours for six months? Is it comfortable? What do you think? In my opinion no, it is better with clothing that, as I said, there are more options. In this case I am not talking about students in a mall, because most of the time children carry their cell phones if they are in a mall, so it would be easier for parents. But in some schools the use of cell phones is not allowed and as you say, it would be difficult if all the classes are joined for parents to find their kids. Many students, after school finishes, don't change their clothing. For example here in Barranquilla, at Buenavista, you find many kids that are wearing their school uniform after the day of school ends, so like this others can make fun of the uniform and also of the school right? There are many shy students that have pain of making a suggestion for the school to change the image of their uniform. There is also a possibility that the school don't accept it. SO students can still feel uncomfortable with the image of their school, instated of being proud. What can make them proud if the school dress is not presentable? School uniforms have rules (example: T-shirt inside, no short socks, for girls skirts under their knees and some more), so teachers will have to check if students follow that rules and do you think that doesn't take time? Schools do have forced conditions and rules that if a student infringe, that student can be punished. The action of banning school uniforms will not make that school rules and punishments to disappear in my opinion. What can you say? For teams, anyone who want to be part can be, even without uniforms, there have to be auditions and ways for people to show that they can be part of that team. Also, the team need to have rules. Taking this into account a people can be approved or disapproved for a team even without uniforms People can get distracted in other ways in class, not only observing clothes of other people. DO you think that if someone infringe the school uniform rules in class other person can get distracted? I think yes, and as I said before, people don't only get distracted with dresses, they can get distracted talking with other people, reading, drawing and many other activities Pressure is going to be found in other aspects, not only in dressing, for example hair style (for girls) in games (people that play bad will feel pressure) and many more aspects I conclude finally, that uniforms limit the image of people and this is a very important aspect for self-esteem. Students can feel that they make part of the school, not only with uniforms, they can also feel that with school programs. Dressing as you want, not only benefit in expression, also in individuality. The school can get many reapplies for school uniforms (is the case of my school, that first when socks where under the knees many people said that mosquitoes will hurt them. But when the code was changed and socks where up, students said that the hot climate will make them to sweat. I think we have rights! Imagine wearing something that you don't want or feel heavy. I can say that in a survey, most of voted against uniforms. People vote for who is better to you! I invite you to vote for me if you wish and I thank in advance the ones who are planning to vote for me. Also thank my opponent for helping me to make this interesting and close debate. https://prezi.com... Note 2:Note: I'm very glad that you also know how to speak Spanish. I almost cried because I did not know how to answer you, debates very well. I know that I can use words in Spanish but in this case I will not do it so that the voters understand what I mean. I honestly think it was a very close debate that left us both thinking how we could contradict each other, but if we have our point, we have to do whatever it takes to defend it. Now that the votes are coming the best wins! This helps me a lot to prepare for possible debates in the school and not to be carried away by what others say. Thank you for accepting my debate and making it so interesting! I ask you to please add me as a friend and I to you. You debate very well. Greetings from Colombia!
