| What are your school uniform? |

Cbbc, Updated 22
June 2004 This is because some of the
skirts worn were considered too short by the head teacher. So do you have school uniform
rules at your school that you want to sound off about? Perhaps you think they're
sexist, stupid or too strict. Or do you think that rules are
a necessary part of keeping the school uniform, well, a uniform?! Whatever you think, e-mail and
let us know. I don't
see what the problem is with girls wearing trousers all year round - lots of boys around
the country manage just fine!
At my
school we have a tie and I think i'ts really silly because nobody ever wears it right
anyway so I don't see the point in having it. However I do think school uniform is a good
idea because it looks smart. At my
school, you can get sent home for not wearing the correct uniform! Also girls can wear
trousers or skirts, but the lads have to wear trousers! We can't wear shorts. Unfair! In my
school we are allowed to wear our own clothes as long as they aren't jeans, skimpy or
sleeveless tops with rude words on them or trainers. Which I suppose is fair compared to
some schools. Our
school is going to ban fitted shirts and tight trousers. The girls are only trying to look
their best with an un-flattering uniform, why shouldn't we look feminine? At our
school, we always have to wear a tie, no excuses. If you get seen without a tie you get a
verbal warning and the next time it is detention for not wearing the full uniform. Unlike
some schools, we are allowed to wear our shirts tucked in or not. The
girls MUST have their blouses tucked in. Our skirts CANNOT be more than 2 inches past our
knee. We have to wear plain white sneakers. We have to wear either black or white socks
and they have to be 2 inches above the ankle. We cannot wear necklaces. And that's only
for the girls! We
don't have a uniform its a dress code were we have to stick to a colour. the colour is
black, white or grey. we can wear white or black shoes/trainers. on Fridays the head
teacher isn't that bothered what we were so most people usually wear jeans and coloured
tops. My
school makes us have these uniform cards which means if any thing is wrong with our
uniform we get strikes on our card and 6 strikes means 1 hour detention after school I'm
always getting told off for not tucking my shirt in or not having my skirt and round my
waist or rolling my skirt up. We have to tie our ties long but I never do -occasionally I
might forget and do it long. We have
a really relaxed uniform. We have to wear a collared shirt and girls don't have to tuck it
in. Girls have to wear black or grey skirts that are meant to be knee length but no one
sticks to that rule. Our
school rules are ok. We can wear black trainers instead of flat black shoes and we get to
wear t-shirts under our school t-shirt so when it gets really hot we can take of out
school ones which is great! Though the bad thing is that our knew head teacher wants to
change it to blazers and ties etc which stinks! I'm
from Holland and we don't have to wear school uniforms but the government is thinking
about it. I don't know how it is so I don't really have a opinion about it but I think it
must be very funny. I don't
mind tucking my shirt in and having my tie long, there's nothing wrong with it. The only
problem is, boys have to wear ties and girls don't! How unfair! Our
uniform rules have always been strict, but now we actually get a say. We formed a
committee at school, and next year might be able to wear capris and backless sandals! At my
school our dress code is to wear clean, new-looking clothes, although some people don't
look like they follow that rule. At my
school we have to wear our shirts tucked in, skirt an inch below or above the knee,
jumpers aren't allowed to be tucked round the waist and no make up, only diamond studded
earrings, and shoes have to have a maximum of two inches for a heel! Because
some people in our school wear their skirts too short we all have to wear tights next year
up until the Easter hols, which is so unfair, because it's not like it's the majority. Mine's
fine really - we have to wear a stupid school shirt and sweatshirt and black trousers, but
if you don't no one really notices - at the worst you can be sent home to get changed.
Sorry did I say worst? We
don't have any uniforms... and I love that!! Although we aren't allowed to wear tank tops
or anything... but that's fine with me... as long as we don't have to wear uniforms! At my
school, whenever it's hot and we want to take off our jumpers, we have to tuck in our
shirts and do up out ties it looks so stupid and it makes us just as hot as having our
jumpers on!!! It's so
unfair 'coz they just made a new rule to tuck our shirts in - I mean we had it before but
now if we don't we get really done and we have to have 6 stripes on our tie. I am fed up
of these rules why can't we just wear it how we want to. My
school makes us put our ties and keep our blazers on all the way home, no matter how hot
it is! At my
school, our tie has to be up to our belly-button. We have to tuck our shirt in, and close
our top button! How unstylish!
We
always get in trouble for having our shirts untucked and having our ties too short. It's
so stupid and our head teacher has made a new rule called in out keep it tidy, where we
have to line up outside our lesson with our shirts tucked in and our ties 6 stripes long. We have
to wear black shoes which annoys me even though most schools have to wear them. Most
people just wear trainers. We get
detention for things such as having badges on our ties! I think that is a bit strict! I
always get done for not tucking my shirt in. But it looks much better untucked as it's not
that long and is fitted. It really annoys me that school uniform rules are so petty. |
