Why this school will ditch a shirt, tie and blazer from its uniform

  I’m still in favour of ditching school uniforms entirely and just mandating that they can’t have any branding on their clothes.

  If schools want to have a uniform, they should pay for it and not charge the parents.

    I agree that schools should pay for it, but not that they should be ditched.

    I didnt realise how rich some of my friends were until I went to their house. The uniform made us all equals in the classroom

      There was no doubt in my school in NZ who was poor and who wasn’t, based on how someone’s clothes fit them or how worn they were. The youngest in a poor family would have some very worn clothes that had been passed down from their siblings. Often 2 sizes too big or too small.
