School uniforms began their history in Great Britain. Here, each school has its own uniform, which must be accompanied by a cap or hat with the school logo, as well as a tie, outerwear and even socks.
The school uniform of England commands respect not only among English schoolchildren, but also among the whole world. From time immemorial, students in English educational institutions have been proud of their uniforms. British clothing for schoolchildren includes not just a business-style suit intended for school, but a full set of clothes, which includes shoes, outerwear, socks and knee socks for girls.
The uniform always has an image of the educational institution's logo, which is most often found on the tie. Young British people wear shirts, ties, hats, blazers and other school wardrobe items with great pleasure.

As for the United States of America, the introduction of uniforms for school students is a necessity. Since with the help of identical clothes you can minimize all conflicts over expensive sneakers and fashionable clothes between students. Such changes were introduced at regular intervals, in the form of experiments in different educational institutions. It was only in 1996 that school uniforms in America became official clothing for all students in the country. Modern American school uniforms serve largely to distinguish students of one educational institution from students of another.
In Germany, school uniforms are discouraged: they are associated with the Hitler Youth uniform. Some schools have introduced uniform school clothing, in the design of which the students themselves can take part, but it is difficult to call it a uniform.
In France, each school has its own uniform, but a uniform school uniform existed only in the years 1927-1968.

School uniforms in Japan are known throughout the world.
“Sailor fuku” is the name of the Japanese school uniform for girls; in Russian it’s just sailor suits. But leaving the gate home school, schoolgirls are in no hurry to take off their school clothes; they are proud to be members of learning communities. Being a student at an educational institution in Japan is very prestigious, so students are proud of their status, which is emphasized by their school uniform.
The uniform also comes with a bag or briefcase. An interesting detail of the uniform is the socks, carefully stretched and glued with special glue.
Boys in Japan wear the "gakuran", which is a dark jacket with a row of buttons and a stand-up collar, as well as trousers. The choice of this style is not accidental. It has Prussian roots, as soldiers of the 19th century Prussian army wore similar clothing. At the time when the Japanese school uniform was being developed, the country did not hesitate to actively borrow ideas from enlightened Europe, which was more developed at that time.

The uniform for boys consists of a white short-sleeved shirt and blue shorts (up to 10th grade, about 15 years old). The girls' uniform varies from school to school, but is generally made entirely of white material.

Despite the ambiguity of approaches in different countries, the problem of school uniforms is one of the most discussed in society. In most countries, the school uniform is the main element of clothing for students, because... carries a number of positive meanings, such as: social, disciplinary, aesthetic and image.
Social significance of school uniform. Uniform, in in this case, levels out the difference in the financial situation of students’ families, thus blurring the line between layers of society and, as a result, helps in learning educational material, since students do not have the desire and opportunity to evoke a feeling of inferiority and complex among their fellow students by parading newfangled things and jewelry.
2. The disciplinary value of the school uniform. School uniform complements the intellectual and physical education disciplinary provisions, such as leadership, status and certain bonds, contributes to the development of a careful attitude to clothing, and is also an important tool for the social identification of students, it not only allows you to distinguish a student from a non-school student, but also creates the necessary distance between students and teachers.
3. Aesthetic value of school uniform. The aesthetic value of a school uniform is the appearance of the student, which is positively perceived by the student himself and the people around him. A strict suit on a student not only encourages him to comply with aesthetic norms and rules, but also, as a result, develops a sense of proportion and instills taste in him. A teenager in a school uniform will often always look nice and neat.
4. The image value of the school uniform. The school uniform in this case acts not only as a reflection of a person’s reality, but also as general characteristics and the emblem of the educational institution, which has its own respectful attitude, high level education, traditions and status. A student in uniform not only emphasizes the individuality of the school (its dignity and strengths), which will certainly contribute to its prosperity and development, but also testifies to his belonging to it, thereby having a positive emotional impact on the people around him. The presence of a uniform at present is an indicator of a high corporate culture.
School uniform - is it good? Does it help class cohesion and maintain discipline, or does it kill individuality and self-expression? Much depends on the traditions of education adopted in a particular country or in different schools.
Obviously, the form itself will not make the student more curious, more diligent, or smarter. And it makes no sense to refer to the experience of the English educational institutions with five centuries of history as an argument “for” the form. Even if all the children wore wizard robes and pointy hats, their school would not turn into Hogwarts. However, the way schoolchildren look in a particular country says a lot about the culture and mentality of its people.

Great Britain
The very concept of “school uniform” appeared in the UK. Back in 1553, not far from London, Christ’s Hospital School was founded by royal decree - an educational institution for boys from poor families, which to this day is called the “blue coat school”. True, now this is a privileged educational institution for children of both sexes. The uniform is still the same: long tailcoats, white “judge” ties, short culottes and yellow stockings. Oddly enough, children are proud of their medieval attire and do not try to make a revolution in order to dress appropriately for the era.
In general, there are very few schools in the UK that do not have compulsory uniforms. Public schools have their own "heraldic colors" that students must adhere to. It is not uncommon for boys to wear shorts and knee socks until late fall until high school. In private institutions, you need to buy uniforms in the school store, and not only a suit in winter and summer versions, but also physical training, socks, ties, often shoes and even hair clips.

Cuba
Cuban schoolchildren receive sundresses and shorts of rich cherry color for free - as well as textbooks and writing instruments. The high school students' outfit is designed in a tobacco color scheme. Closer to graduation, Cubans change clothes again, this time into blue shirts and blue trousers and skirts. All children are members of the youth division of the Communist Party, so the uniform is complemented by red or blue scarves - in the manner of pioneer ties.
India
In some schools, the uniform for girls is a sari or shalwar kameez of a particular color. But more often it is a European costume for everyone - a legacy of the times of British rule. Alas, what is good for the cool climate of Foggy Albion pretty much poisons the lives of children whose schools are located on the equator. Sikh boys wear turbans to school. In public schools, children from low-income families they receive uniforms, textbooks and stationery for free, but, probably, every parent dreams of sending their child to a better school, although by Indian standards this is quite an expensive pleasure.

Japan
The most famous version of the Japanese school uniform for girls is the “sailor fuku”, a sailor suit with many variations. The best designers are working on the development of models - after all, a spectacular form is one of the factors in attracting new students to the school, which is extremely important in a rapidly aging country with negative population growth. IN Lately the trend has changed - sailor suits are losing relevance, Japanese school style drifts towards English.
An interesting story happened with the men's traditional jacket with a stand-up collar - gakuran, reminiscent of an ancient military sailor's jacket. The word "gakuran" consists of two characters that mean "student" and "West", jackets of this style were worn by schoolchildren and students in Japan, Korea and China for almost 100 years (less so in China, of course). But gakuran was also loved by members of numerous gangster associations. In addition, the same hieroglyphs can be deciphered as “school robbery.” In the 70s of the 20th century, psychologists decided that gakuran has a certain “dark aura” and is one of the reasons for school violence, which has become acute social problem. But to this day, many Japanese schoolchildren wear gakurans; for them it is not so much a tribute to tradition as a protest and a challenge to public opinion.

China
After the end of the Cultural Revolution and until the mid-90s of the 20th century, a variety of colors and styles reigned in the country - each school itself decided what its students would look like. However, in 1993 new ones were released state standards for school uniforms, from now on it had to provide freedom of movement, be practical and cheap. And it turned out that the easiest way is to dress the children in tracksuits - both boys and girls. Only prestigious private schools insisted on following the British or Japanese style.
Since heating in educational institutions is only available in the very north of the country, in the cold season children pull on their uniforms over warm clothes, but when the sun begins to warm up, pants and sweatshirts turn out to be a size or two larger. Today the majority Chinese schools made a choice in favor of a “bag of flour”. I must say this " fashion trend“neither the students nor their parents liked it. Under the influence of public opinion, as well as after several scandals when carcinogens were found in cheap fabric, the Chinese government returned to the issue of school uniforms and again changed the standards towards lighter ones. So, soon Chinese children will again look not like juvenile thugs.

Ireland
Many schools have adopted plaid skirts and ties, which evoke associations with Celtic clans. Instead of formal jackets, as a rule, students wear knitted jumpers and cardigans. It is noteworthy that Irish children, like English children, even in sub-zero temperatures, wear uniform socks.
Germany
Perhaps the Germans are stopped by memories of the times of the Third Reich, when almost all children came to classes in the uniform of the Hitler Youth, but in Germany there are no uniforms in public schools, although there have been debates about this for many years, and in some places they are introduced in person. By the way, big opponents immigrants from the USSR who moved to German lands began to unify schoolchildren's clothing. But individual school councils can make decisions on branded school colors with the wish that at least something in the students’ everyday attire matches the brand book.

Of course, there are schoolgirls wearing headscarves in Hurghada and Sharm al-Sheikh, but they are in the minority.
