A new school uniform has been introduced almost universally since the beginning of this school year. What will be included in its composition, what color it will be - all this is decided by the school in which your child will study. The document of the Ministry of Education and Science says only that it must fully comply with the business style and have a secular character. And also it should correspond to the season and temperature in the street and in the classroom.
New school uniform: 2013-2014 academic year
Many parents were opposed to the introduction of a single form in schools. But such a government decision definitely has advantages. Now in school you are unlikely to meet a girl with a navel piercing or a guy in ripped jeans. And material inequality in this way is practically erased. Suppose that in ordinary life everything remains as it was, but on the school grounds all children are equal.
What is her new school uniform?
Boys should wear trousers, a shirt and a vest, and girls should wear a blouse, skirt or sundress. Wearing a jacket or not depends on the wishes of the parents and the child. But a vest is a must for everyone. The difference can only be in the color of the form, which is agreed jointly by parents and teachers. Models of skirts for girls can be different, from pleated to straight. Boys can wear a classic sweater or knit vest with a classic cut. Many fashion designers have had a hand in developing mold models. There is a school uniform from Vyacheslav Zaitsev, however, she did not have a large number of fans. But in general, the modern form is quite similar to the one that was canceled in 1992, as was thought, forever.
Issue price
We all try to give the best to children, and no matter how much it costs. So before the first of September we all wonder how much the new school uniform costs. Did the reform manage to solve the main problem - the race for wealthy children? Indeed, despite all the assurances that the form will be free, it, of course, will cost parents quite expensive.
Statistics show that this year the new school uniform will cost parents about ten percent more.
New school uniform: pros and cons
Many are against the school uniform, saying that children should have their own style, and “egalitarianism” only makes them look alike, does not allow a sense of style to develop. Meanwhile, in Europe, a common form for all students has long been introduced. Each prestigious college has its own uniform and logo, which is attached to it. Scientists have come to the conclusion that the school uniform is to some extent even useful. Students wearing uniforms are more disciplined. After all, this is a business style of clothing, and therefore, behavior should be appropriate. In addition, the form solves the problem of material inequality in school, which means it prevents ridicule, bullying and humiliation of those who cannot afford to dress expensively. And also the new school uniform significantly saves the family budget. You need a few shirts, a pair of trousers or sundresses, a jacket. This greatly simplifies the collection of the child in school - you do not need to rack your brains every morning on what to put on him or her.
The new school uniform is a great idea for the government and the Ministry of Education. Let's hope that it will take root in our schools for many years.
