Persuasive essay

Uniform? What's the need in it? Does it help our education? No. Does it keep us all equal? Yes. There's a lot of pros and cons about uniform and I'm going to tell you my opinions and views on the subject in this essay.

When I walk into school I'm surrounded by individuality, uniqueness and originality. Although our school have a strict uniform policy, the pupils at Broxburn Academy still manage to sneak their own little bit of their personality into their outfit. For example netted tights, a pretty pink cardigan or even some Doc Martens, we pupils still get to express our emotions and personalities through our uniform. 9/10 teachers agree with it and 65% of high school pupils in scotland also agree with having a school uniform. So where's the problem then? In recent studies by the BBC Education department, the average cost for a secondary school pupils uniform is around £200. That is a lot of money therefore this is one of the main disadvantages for uniform. 35% of parents complain about the cost where 75% don't mind it.

Does uniform really increase out grades? America is the highest construction in the world when it ces to grades yet a massie 77% of secondary school don't wear uniform

Recent studies by the BBC Education department revealed that the average cost of a secondary school uniform would be around GBP 200.

This is a major disadvantage with uniforms and I believe it is highly unreasonable.
Postitives; uniformity across the students that make their social differences less visible/ may promote them to have their focus more on academic activities
Negatives; Freedom is somewhat challenged/ Cost/ Monotonous / Less creative
