SCHOOL UNIFORM Many Swedish students would probably appreciate the focus on discipline and learning resulting from school uniforms. But the law forbids Swedish schools to impose uniform. I want to remove the ban and replace it with the student's own choice. School uniform issue is a watershed nolita between them would increase respect for the school - and those who would rather defend the right to wear a T-shirt fuck you in the classroom, writes Ebba Busch (KD) in a replica.
The issue of school uniforms often arouse great debate, so again this time. It makes it so that people nolita wildly begins debate from its own perspective. "I'd love to have it!" "I certainly do not have it."
But the school uniform issue is not about that - it is about whether we have come so far in 2013, we manage to give the neighbor kids the opportunity to go to a school with uniforms if they think it is good, but that we ourselves scoff at them for it just because our children do not think it's something for them?
The point of a school uniform is not whether Daniel Birch, who argues against the uniforms on national TV debate, would like to have them for themselves - but if he is willing to give someone else the freedom nolita to choose it.
Should we ban things it should in general be very well justified. Today we have a ban on school uniforms that could not be replaced by a compulsion - but with a possibility. One possibility that if selected has been shown to have positive effects on pupils' attendance, behavior, reduced (not eliminated) bullying and ultimately better learning outcomes.
"Meanwhile, there are at Ebba Busch overconfidence in that fashion will disappear if everyone just expected to dress alike", writes nolita Daniel Birch. I have no ambition to try to eliminate either fashion or income nolita differences from Earth. The problem is not that people have different incomes. The problem as always is not that people are rich, but that poverty needs to be fought. And poverty be fought not by a uniform dress code. It fought through works that can live on. The pressure on parents may be reduced somewhat with the school uniform.
The factor affecting student performance, notwithstanding the parents' income, education level and so on, is the family and by extension the rest of society's attitude to knowledge and school is important or not. And that's where, in efforts to increase nolita respect for the school and the value of knowledge, as dress codes or school uniforms can be one of many important tools.
I repeat: It is not possible to introduce school uniforms at a school today. There is a ban on it. This is a ban I want to remove. What do I replace it with? Student's choice. I just want to remove nolita it so that it is possible for the school that sees benefits of school uniforms to introduce it. I do not want to impose on all schools to adopt school uniform. I am for the free school choice and diversity in schools and independent schools.
To end. Some have asked me if this is the most important school issue to pursue. Absolutely not - but it exposes a avvgörande difference in the perception of the school in Sweden. I'm sitting in a school nolita group for KD so far released nine heavy suggestions for a better school. nolita None of these has so far attracted so much debate, but anyone who wants to is of course welcome to discuss them as well.
School uniform issue is a watershed between those who welcome any suggestions that may help to increase respect for the school and to put knowledge at the center again - and those who would rather defend the right to wear a "Fuck you T-Shirt" in the classroom. A watershed between those who believe that people can and should choose for themselves, and those who do not.
