The wearing of school uniform is a controversial matter in some countries. American teenagers do not wear them; nor do the French or the Greeks. But the British do and apart from a few exceptions, so do the Australians. Supporters say that a uniform provides a sense of identification with the school community. They also claim that it removes the competitive tendency young people have to outdress each other and hence divide themselves into ‘haves’ and ‘have nots’. Another view claims that if uniforms were removed teenagers would end up creating their own ‘peer mode’ which itself would become a de facto uniform.
