Should we wear school uniforms?

Press Packer Amanda's report takes a look at an issue that always gets you talking - school uniforms.

Her report looks at why some of you love your ties and blazers while others of you would rather bin them.

"Most of us have to wear uniforms so I've decided to report on why some children like wearing a school uniform and other children hate it.

Stop the fashion show

Some children agree with having a school uniform.

There are lots of reasons why they like having them.

Firstly because it shows that everyone has the same rights.

Also, some children make fun of each other if they don't like each other's clothes.

And some families can't afford such expensive clothing as other families and school can become a fashion show.

Your own style

On the other hand, some children disagree with having to wear a school uniform.

There are some really good reasons why children are against wearing uniforms.

For a start, school uniform isn't fashionable.

Also, most children feel more comfortable in their own clothes.

Children like to dress in their own clothes so that they can look more individual.

Being yourself

So there are some interesting points for and against having school uniforms.

But, overall, it doesn't really matter what you are wearing - it will still be you."

Amanda, 11, Merseyside
