The importance of wearing the uniform
At LM SCHOOL UNIFORMS we firmly and deeply believe in the importance of wearing a uniform, and our mission is to share and transmit the great intrinsic values of the school uniform. We are fully aware of the countless advantages that the uniform brings with it.
1- The school uniform creates a sense of identity
The school uniform creates a sense of identity for the school within its community and strengthens the sense of belonging among students, who feel part of a group.
The well-known Brookes University of Oxford conducted a study in 2007: according to this research, the school uniform is one of the most important factors that contributes to building a sense of pride and loyalty among students toward their school. This research also showed that wearing a school uniform helps students more easily develop a sense of belonging to the community, which can be put at the service of noble causes.
2- Less pressure from peers
Adopting the school uniform means that students no longer have to worry about peer pressure regarding their clothing. When everyone is dressed the same way, there is no more competition or desire to follow the latest fashion trends, which could otherwise put both parents and the students themselves in difficulty.
Students who cannot afford expensive, fashionable clothing are often the first victims of bullies. But potential bullies have one less reason to insult their victims, since it becomes difficult to mock someone’s clothing when they are dressed in exactly the same way.
At the same time, uniforms help parents save a lot of money.
3- More focus on studies
The school uniform allows students to concentrate on their studies rather than on clothing.
In fact, in places where the uniform has been adopted, an improvement in performance has been recorded: distractions are reduced, greater attention is given to schoolwork, and the classroom becomes a more serious environment, which allows students to achieve better results.
It also helps maintain a sense of order at school and promotes an atmosphere more suited to study. In this way, students themselves come to see school as a more orderly and safer place.
4- Practical clothing
The proper school uniform includes accessible, comfortable items, made with easy-care fabrics, with excellent fit and – in many cases – with eco-friendly fabrics, suitable for both school and physical activity.
5- Learning how to dress appropriately
The school uniform teaches students to dress appropriately and to be proud of their appearance. It helps prepare them for future workplaces where formal dress is required and appropriate to the work being carried out.
6- Greater safety
The school uniform also creates a safer environment because it makes it much easier to identify visitors and potential intruders in the school.
Wearing the school unifom promotes positive values
It develops a sense of unity and belonging, cultivates pride, and creates a sense of uniqueness.
