Many parents, teachers and school officials believe that wearing school uniforms is a good and creative way to reduce discipline issues as well as to increase safety at schools.
Peer pressure decreases
Students don't feel the pressure to buy expensive and trendy clothes.
Economic and Social Differences Shatter
Students experience less envy towards kids with more money. Students with less money don't feel so much like outsiders. Self esteem goes up.
Eliminating Gangs in Schools
Gang colors and logos are not allowed, and therefore would not be seen by other students at school. This reduces the incidence of violence at schools.
Increase of Unity
By wearing the same clothes, students feel a sense of belonging and pride in their school.
Identifying Intruders
School uniforms can help schools identify people who don't belong on campus.
Eliminating dress codes
Teachers and school officials don't have to enforce any dress codes. Less time is wasted on arguments about skirts that are too short, or shirts with inappropriate logos.
