Short skirts, knee-high socks, white blouses: Girls' school uniform items are widely used as costumes in pornographic videos. As students experience harassment, a group wants to change that.
Yeah it cost us €40 for the year. They come home after their school and change, its either okay for the next day or they swap it for the clean one. Shorts and spare shirts included.
Are we all going to pretend like there isnt cliques, like kids cant be mean, like there are not social pressures added to children once they leave their fsmily unit for school
So the cost was already on the parents, is my point.
That being said, a uniform doesn’t prevent any of what you’re talking about. If a kid comes from a poor family and has a uniform, they’re still going to be picked on for being poor. If not for being poor, then for some other reason. You can’t protect children from everything and there’s a solid argument to be made that trying to stunts their growth.
Yeah it amount to about 1.5 local currency a week over the school year. If it cant be afforded, which it absolutely can be by almost anyone, it is supported by the state.
It does prevent it, it puts them on an equal footing visually and from the start. Kids are only going to see that they all have the same outfits. They cant compare phones, lunches are provided. I would hope that by the time such biases come out the kids have formed a safety net and social circle.
Great, what I’m reading says that parents spend on average over 400£ per year for kids in secondary school and over 300£ per year for kids in primary school (on uniforms, which means they’re undoubtedly spending more on clothes outside of that because no kid wants to wear a uniform outside of school). Where are these numbers coming from? Who knows! None of what I’ve said has changed significantly.
I’ve literally never seen school uniforms that don’t need to be purchased by the individual

40£ is pennies compared to what most parents spend on clothes for kids to wear to school.
