Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: Good idea

of course I agree that it is such kind of control,but school uniform make kids equally, if every student will wear similar clothes, people will be not judge by their clothes , because of finance status of some families. Some families can buy good and beautiful clothes for their child, but another cannot and as we now nowadays kids really attract attention on that what their peers wearing, especially girls and if kid who have no money will wear everyday same clothes, all will laugh to him.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: Good idea

Incorrect. School uniforms do NOT make kids equal. They find other ways to dosciminate, tease and alienate others no matter what they are wearing! They will laugh and tease it the kids uniforms are not clean, if their tie is crooked, if their backpack isn't cool. it is just the nature of kids. Uniforms do not change that fact!
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: Good idea

I agree with your point of view (Assiyakimep) that uniforms are great. You know what you are going to wear in the morning and there is no fights over the kind of brands that people are wearing.They look smart too.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: bad idea

Okay, first of all, you are simply asuming that they will look smart, no proof, anecdotal or otherwise. Secondly, their aren't a lot of fights over clothing now, and even with uniforms they will just find something else, so ever you use genetic engineering to ensure that every human being on the planet is a clone of the same person, and eliminate all vestige of choice in every aspect of society, or you can't really improve on that. (Really doubt people will actually go for that idea.)
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: Good idea

That there was no doubt I will list some examples of variables for beliefs In Australia, India, Ireland. Each prestigious school has own logo, and students must come with a "brand" tie. School children love to wear uniforms and are proud of it.Turkey, Singapore. Each school has own color, but a single style: for boys - costume, girls - blouse, skirt and sweater, for all - tie flower school. Thus, they stress that all are equal, regardless of socio-economic status of parents.Japan - style school uniform doesn't change more than a century, students go to Sailor "Sailor fuku'. School uniforms for them - the standard of teen fashion. Japanese girls have it even outside the school.

School Uniforms cost money and according to a study by the Educational Research Information Center (E.R.I.C.) there is no real measurable benefit to requiring School Uniforms on either academic achievement, or behavior problems.http://eric.ed.gov/ERICWebPortal/search/ detailmini.jsp?_nfpb=true&_&ERICExtSearch_SearchValue_0=EJ759407&ERICExtSearch_SearchType_0=no&accno=EJ759407
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: Good idea

Yes, school uniform is cost money, but not so much like different clothes for every day, and it is more cheaper to buy school uniform for all academic year than to buy different clothes.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: bad idea

Students still have a variety of clothes that they wear outside of school. A uniform does not replace those clothes. School uniforms stifle freedom of expression and pressures them to conform.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: Good idea

I don't agree that the uniform stifle self-expression, student can show their individuality outside of school. School is for learning, school uniform is quite evenly replaces casual wear.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: bad idea

If a student must go outside of school to express themselves then certainly it can be said that school stifles freedom of expression. The only argument you have made is that school ONLY stifles free expression while they are in school.School uniforms do not replace casual clothes because when they are not at school they will change into casual clothes. So instead of just wearing one outfit per day, the student will wear the uniform during school hours and then change into casual clothes when they get out of school. It is an unnecessary clothing expenditure. As my evidence shows, there is no academic or behavioral benefit to requiring a school uniform.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: bad idea

Children will always find ways to tease and pick on other kids. uniforms do not change that! If a kid has a different backpack, braces, glasses a dirty uniform etc. They may be targeted by other students. As for them ooking sharp, our society bases it's opinions way too much on looks. It teaches children superficiality. if you look good you are smart and can achieve anything. this is of course crap. it is not the clothes but their talent and ability and desire that drive these things. Plus most of the reliable data I have seen shows no real improvement in behavior or academics in children with uniforms as those without. I know when I was in school and had to wear a silly uniform I would have been more of a behavior problem!
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: Good idea

I actually like uniforms. I know, people are saying stuff that it doesn't let you express yourself and things like that, but that doesn't matter! In school, your not supposed to focus on what people wear. That's what you come to school for! It's not a fashion show where you show off your clothes and style and make fun of others, but that's just plain stupid. Uniforms take care of those problems, it's symbolizing that everyone is equal.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: bad idea

Of course school is not a fashion show, but it is not a prison either. I have been to both a a school with and without a uniform, and in my opinion i prefer not having a school uniform. A dress code describing what is appropriate to wear is all you need. As for the making fun of others, at my school students take pride in their origanl and odd clothes. Some students have wear t-shirts of power rangers or pokemon and no one bothers them for it.

School is not a place for you to be expressing yourself, which you can even do by hair,make-up and accessories school is a place for learning and getting an education.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: bad idea

I the idea of scool uniforms is totally anathema to me, they are just another part of how our society controls people, even the name, they are intended to dampen individuality, and enforce uniformity.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: bad idea

I think its a bad idea because if the children get there uniforms dirty then they would have to wash the uniform. I think we should wear the clothes we want to wear in school. Also school uniforms cost money and will be on the school's budget.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: Good idea

You are completely wrong. Do you think that children do not have to wash your other clothes? This is ridiculous. If you support the other side, then you should not think about the budget of the school. because they have to buy clothes that they want to be kids, which is much more expensive than a uniform.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: bad idea

Well lets say the school lets only have one pair of uniforms and you get it dirty then you will have to wash it and then you would have to wait the next morning when it was time to go to school and you would be late to school because of that one pair
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: Good idea

Well, suppose so. But we have a weekend where we can safely wash and go without delay to the pair. Besides if they produce a form, it will be sewn from a special fabric that dries quickly =)
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: Good idea

True you could do that. If I had a school uniform and it was the only one I would try to not mess it up for the whole week and wash it on the weekend.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea

I'm thinking that cleanly students will need to have two pairs of school uniforms. At the time of the Soviet Union was a school uniform and no one complained.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: bad idea

Actually, there are no financial benefits to having uniforms anywhere, just because you have a uniform for your job, does that mean those are the only clothes you ever wear? No, you own other clothes that you wear when you are not at work, so unless you have 24/7 school days in the near future(which have a whole host of problems the likes of which you've never seen) or it just doesn't work that way.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: bad idea

I think that school uniforms are a bad idea because it can injure child's personality. School uniforms not always have a suitable color and design for all school students. School uniforms almost always are sewn by the fixed standard
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: bad idea

School uniforms are not the way to solve problems that we have in education.According to the research, which was done by Shane Shamburger " there is no inlfluence to the academic achievment from school uniform", school uniform just only the clothes and the style of the school, but not more.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: Good idea

I think uniforms are good. If you have uniforms, then kids can focus on schoolwork instead of "Shopping!" Besides, there are other ways besides fashion to express yourself. Like talking to some one. Communicating. You can also draw. Get a new hair style. So many things besides clothes.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea

Bisen I dont believe that you obsessed on school uniform! The main purpose of education is tiching of the educated peoples that in the future try to raise ecomony of KZ! You opinion is so interesting but the main thing of the education is certainly knowledge, not uniform!
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: Good idea

Aliya, yes, I agree that the main purpose of education is teaching, but it depend on some conditions such as the Uniform which help to children for gainning knowledge. Attitudes to learning in children will be more serious if they are in Uniform =)

Those who are against school uniforms--->Health workers say that school uniforms protects children's health. The fashion of wearing AND denudative stomach has serious implications for the children's health. In this part of the body are nerves and blood vessels that affect the genitourinary tract and renal system.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: bad idea

Fashion is an art form and through fashion everyone can be an artist. If we have everyone wear the exact same clothing we are stunting creativity. Young adults love to express themselves and fashion is another way they are able to do that. School uniforms send a message and that message is "everyone should be exactly alike and we don't trust your judgement or creative ideas." Which is just ridiculous.
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: Good idea

I want to write reliable information to fully understand the importance of school uniforms. According to psychologists Pskov: "The form should be introduced. Not every student can dress according to fashion. After all, as wearing a child, sometimes affects the attitude toward classmates. But it doesnt hurt the child's identity, since it can express, for example, hair or clothing)))
Debate: School uniform is a good idea
Side: bad idea

It is not so much it is a bad idea as a useless idea.First of all it does nothing to stop students from seeing each other sexually. The school girl look is one of the most common sexual icons.It does nothing to foster equality as students all find way to express themselves and their style and wealth.It does nothing to create respect. School uniforms are always abused.It requires people to buy clothes they will only use for school.It does nothing to stop kids from misbehaving. The ones who are misbehaving could care less if they are associated with the school.The only real benefits I can see is to companies that sell the uniforms and people who like to see teens in School girl uniforms.

Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Proposition

Zi Heng - I think the school uniform should be scrapped, as, if you stain your uniform, it will be very hard to remove the stain. The stains on your shirt will also be very obvious due to the colour, and draw unwanted attention. It might be embarrassing for some to go to school like that, and they might decide buy another one. However, the shops selling the uniforms might be far away for some, making it inconvenient. Why should we travel long distances to get a specific piece of clothing, when you have so many more more comfortable clothing at home? Prior to the first day of school, people will be crowding around the store and after traveling to the store, you might find your effort wasted if it is out of stock. The shoes have to be mostly white, and most shoes of that colour have bad grip, making running during P.E more tiring, and making the chances of slipping higher.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

Even if you stain your uniform and you want to but a new one, call the shop and reserve it. Or alternatively, ask someone who lives close by to buy it for you. For the shoes, just buy your preferred shoes and leave them in your locker. Wear your white shoes to school and during PE, just change shoes.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Proposition

First of all if you want to reserve one on the first day of school, the phone line will be busy, as a lot of people will also want to reserve it. It might also be out of stock when you call in, wasting your money calling. If you ask someone who lives near you to buy it for you, wouldn't it be troublesome to them, as they might also be busy?That person also lives the same distance to the shop as you, as they live near to you, so, if you live very far away from the shop, wouldn't it be troublesome for that person? If you change your shoes every time before P.E, it would be wasting our P.E time, and make or teacher angry. Furthermore, most of the time, we are released late for P.E. Anyway, we are still not allowed to wear shoes of over 70% white during P.E.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

So call to reserve beforehand. And you are ASSUMING that your friend is busy. He could very might well be living next to the mall and while he's running errands, just buy it for you. And for the PE shoes, it might interest you to know that for the whole of Semester 1 I changed shoes and I WAS NEVER LATE. Besides, PE shoes less than 70% white are allowed. Did any PE teacher SPECIFICALLY say it is not allowed?

If the uniform gets stained, it would be very hard to remove. Hence, you would have to waste time applying stain remover etc, soaking uniform in water just to get rid of that ketchup patch on your white uniform
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

As what I had previously mentioned, school uniform is easier to wash; all you need to do is just to bleach it. It's white, anyway. Also, every shirt will get stains.

You can also be careful and not spill ketchup on yourself.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Proposition

I am writing against Jordan's answer. I think that bleaching our school uniform may be easy and fast to do. But if you add up all the time wasted on bleaching your school uniform, you can probably even do a homework or even study for a test. Thus, I think uniforms should be scrapped. I also think that our school uniform must be white and must be neat and tidy, like that,when we go out,we will carry ourselves better and people will then have a better impression of our school.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

Hahaha but Royce, when we go out, we can't carry ourselves better and no one will get a better impression of our school BECAUSE WE HAVE NO UNIFORM.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Proposition

Jordan also said that every shirt has stains but stains also can be removed. If we wear home clothes,for the darker clothes,even if we have minor stains on the shirt,people still cannot even identify it. Our school uniform is white so every single stain can be seen.

Side: Opposition

If you're worried about the stains just wash it and be more careful in the future.

Side: Proposition

I feel that uniforms should be scrapped because they prevent students from showing their true selfs. Uniforms restrict students and limit their imagination in the fashion aspect. Wearing school uniforms makes one look so ordinary and does nothing but make the student blend in with everybody else, hidden. But if uniforms were scrapped, students could stand out from the crowd! Be the rose among the thorns. Whether goth, hippie or just modern fashion, they are all unique. Students can be identified by their cool tye-dye t-shirt, or their black-streaked white Converse shoes. Which student would want to study with a tie strangling him or her? Or be so caught up with buying school badges and 70% white shoes? These tedious little things will all disappear if uniforms were scrapped. The student could study comfortably in his or her clothes. Shopping for school uniforms at the beginning of the year is such a hassle. Which sensible human being likes finding a perfect size for school uniforms and then queuing up in long lines in a crowded shop? So to conclude my argument, uniforms are unnecessary, extra and completely inessential and therefore, SHOULD BE SCRAPPED.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Proposition

I support that School uniform is out of date and should be scrapped away as one will feel more free in dressing and not worrying that if I forget bring my badge,my tie and will get punished.When we go out of school,no one would recognise us eventhough we do something wrong, the public will not recognise us.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

Sigh... Like what I said to Ryan Chng, remembering to bring your badge and tie is being responsible. Unless you're saying you're not responsible... And once again, it is better to behave well in public wearing school uniform as you would build up the school's reputation. Unless you're saying you can't help it but to misbehave in public...

I think that if we wear our home clothes to school,it would be more cooling as the collar on the school uniform make us feel a little bit stuffy in the classroom. It will then lead to us being restless during class.If we wear our own home clothes,it would be more cooling and there will be a better and conductive environment for us to study. It will then help us achieve better results.

Some random guy on the site, your welcome to debate on any of the other debates not for your class. Its an open debate, so I figured I would throw my two cents in. If your teacher would prefer otherwise, just have him send me a quick message. Also, if you and your class wishes for your debates to be private, that can be done easily via a debate community.If the trial version is too short, or the versions which have the option of being private too expensive, then the free version of a debate community would likely still create a greater private experience due to isolating debates from the general site's audience.
