What do you guys think about school uniforms, especially from people currently in schools that require them? When I was going to school, I did not have much of an opinion, but now into adulthood, I cannot see what the bloody problem is.

1) They give students the opportunity to parade their identity to the school outside of school hours.
2) They allow emergency services and people who are helping them if they get into trouble (say, on an excursion) identify them. My school did not have uniforms, but rather a dress code. That said, by the time they arrived, many of the students in my school were no longer minors.
3) They teach children about discipline and the nature of rules.

In relation to my first point, if students do not have the motivation or the pride in their school to represent it on the street, then that is a problem between the student and the school, not in the very concept of the uniform. Police have died in the uniform, their kit means everything to some officers. In sport, uniforms can define your entire career.

Students should frankly embrace it.
