Parents call for the abolition of school uniforms, expensive and of poor quality!

Many parents are calling for the elimination of expensive, low-quality school uniforms.

School uniforms have a special place in the minds of many students and are considered to be the most beautiful clothing, so students usually wear their own school uniforms. Recently, however, some parents have called for the abolition of the uniform system and the promotion of students being allowed to wear their own clothes. Here's why:

Nowadays, almost all schools require students to wear school uniforms, and all school students are obliged to purchase school uniforms for spring, summer, autumn and winter. At first, people thought that the school uniform was relatively affordable, after all, the number of students was large, and even if the profit from each set of school uniforms was not much, the school could have a considerable income. However, parents are aware that the high cost of school uniforms** is too much for many families to bear.

Taking a school as an example, the student's school uniform** can reach more than 4,000 yuan, which is more expensive than the tuition fee, and such a high ** makes many families prohibitive. What's even more unsatisfactory is that the price of the same school uniform on the stall is only more than 100 yuan, and the high profit of the school uniform is surprising.

The main purpose of forcing students to wear school uniforms is to prevent students from comparing themselves with each other and to allow them to concentrate on their studies and not to pursue vanity and fame and fortune excessively. But in reality, this effect is not obvious. Although children's school uniforms have been harmonized, shoes, school bags, and stationery can still be compared with each other, especially shoes. Some students from wealthy families wear brand-name shoes worth tens of thousands of yuan, while others can only choose ordinary shoes worth a few tens of yuan. Even with school uniforms, children can still show their family background in other ways, and school uniforms do not completely eliminate comparison.

The high quality and poor quality of school uniforms are the main reasons for parents' dissatisfaction. Nowadays, schools treat school uniforms as commercial items, and the associated corruption is quite serious. Parents have little say in the choice of school uniforms, and the choice of school uniforms, fabrics, and styles are all decided by the school, and parents can only passively accept them. The school uniform business involves huge bribes, often in the thousands of dollars per uniform, which is a significant amount even if the bribe is only a small amount. This is also one of the reasons why the school insists that students buy school uniforms, because the elimination of school uniforms will cost the school a lot of revenue, which is unacceptable to the school.

To solve the current problems, we can learn from foreign management methods. First of all, a unified school uniform standard can be implemented in a city or region, produced by external manufacturers, sold in the market, parents can buy school uniforms according to their own needs, and schools are no longer involved in the sale and purchase of school uniforms. At present, school uniforms vary from school to school and even from year to year, so buying school uniforms has become a burden for families with multiple children. Secondly, a second-hand school uniform market can be established to sell school uniforms that are no longer worn by senior students to younger students at a cheaper ** to reduce waste. The phenomenon of uniform waste is quite serious: some uniforms are even new, but they cannot be reused because the school often changes the style of uniform.

Generally speaking, the problem is not the school uniform itself, nor the parents who want to cancel the school uniform, but the fact that there are many problems with the existing school uniform. Parents are unhappy with the high quality, poor quality and the school's use of uniforms as a tool for profit. Therefore, we need to solve these problems instead of blindly abolishing the school uniform system. To solve the problem of school uniforms, the best way is to adopt management methods similar to foreign countries to ensure that the quality of school uniforms and the quality of school uniforms are reasonably controlled.
