Do Students Need to Wear School Uniforms?
[00:12.05]It is not new to see students wearing school uniforms.
[00:16.99]In fact, most schools in China,
[00:20.23]both public and private,
[00:22.21]require their students to wear school uniforms.
[00:25.97]People's opinions are divided on this issue.
[00:29.51]Some people hold that wearing school uniforms is beneficial to students
[00:35.36]in that they cannot judge their peers by the clothes they wear.
[00:39.29]Therefore, students, no matter from poor or rich families,
[00:44.47]are equal in this regard.
[00:46.76]In contrast,
[00:48.56]others think that wearing school uniform
[00:51.70]has a harmful impact on students' individuality,
[00:55.46]which certainly does no good to their development.
[00:59.16]Taking different opinions into account,
[01:02.81]I believe school uniform is an indispensable part of school life
[01:07.90]due to its many merits,
[01:09.84]but we should not put too much emphasis on it.
