School uniforms: turning our kids into soulless conformists | Suzanne Moore

These days, every educator Michael Gove below are a fan of the formidable vest / tie combo. Exactly what they really think they help prepare children for the "real life"?

You want me to tell you what I'm wearing? Not in some kind of sex the way - this is the Guardian, for the love of God. I'm with the Guardian uniform, which is what you imagine it to be. Earrings card? Hemp jackets? Blocks of color? It is, curiously, not a shirt and tie and jacket, but these are extremely rare clothes that make children wear "instill discipline" them. All sensible people say. But I do not. Having to buy a school uniform this week, I felt so discouraged than ever ridiculous one.

As expected, I've never been a fan of my own school uniform, which was green bottle with panties felt. We were constantly talked about activities that have not been allowed to see it. In a confused way, as I remember, in fact, eating chips and talking to children. "I'll then remove Miss," I used to say, because he was angry yesterday and today.

The uniform price itself was a problem. The unraveling was a problem. We could not afford. Once I had a Saturday job which helped, but of course, I bought plastic platforms lime green. Strangely not acceptable as school shoes unless my mother wrote a note. What medical condition requires the use of these beauties that I can only guess, but my mother is now looking with astonishment, the bottom line is almost always. "She is in a phase of"

Does this uniform instill in me a sense of unity with my school or state ideological apparatus that later I realized that? Is it solves the problem of the class? Er ... not exactly. In those days we did not have stupid words like fashion "vintage" and "pre-loved", who had hand-me-downs, and really do not know a child who wants a flea modern uniform.

The myth is that the uniform is a social leveler, an equalizer. And pushes the results? Then show me how. Many European countries do not have good schools with uniforms. Bill Clinton in the 90s thought that might be the answer to gang violence. It was not.

teachers vary, some reports that much of their time is devoted to monitor violations of clothing. If education is to be consistent and not attract talent, I guess it is good, even if the type of total spent in France for science or art would certainly be enough. Uniform hides many social ills. Sometimes, even poor parents. ("Well, they were always clean and correct uniform.") The signifiers of class and bags of money simply rejigged around, phone and pens. It is as it always has been.

This nostalgia for a uniform, reinforced by the imagination retrograde Harry Potter is based on emotion, not reason. The evidence does not come into it. This gives better results? Happy children? Is apeing private schools in appearance, but not neglect the resources actually serious? What we need, coupled with the increasing prevalence of hideous jacket / tie combo, increases social inequality. Could draw, but do not ask me, as I lost a lot of classes because of this attitude. "Do not ask, my child, and put his tie properly."


not ask questions about the world of work, we are preparing for the children. At present, it seems that some work free uniform superstore. Familiarize yourself in advance. Compliance. Zero tolerance. The best days of your life.

in uniform shopping this week, I was hot and sweaty, like polo horrible condition. Skirts must be knee length. Who can stop adolescent sexuality, of course. And note the return of over socks, which of course does not seem to imply any manner whatsoever. At least the things I bought was cheap. Some uniforms are downtown near 300 pounds.
When I had jobs where I had to wear a uniform - in restaurants and hospitals - I just came all at once. I saw the need. But to learn? To learn what? Again, I ask: where is the evidence that the work uniforms
