Background

We think students should be able to express themselves, after all they are kids and shouldn't have to feel trapped in their uniforms. They should also be able to dress by the weather as it gets too hot/too cold and they should be able to wear what suits them best. We believe school uniforms are getting more and more expensive and children would already have their own clothes that they could wear or buy new cheap ones online, which may cost way less than the uniforms.
