In many of its former colonies, the form has not been canceled after independence, for example, in India, Ireland, Australia, Singapore, South Africa.
The form in Great Britain It is part of the history of the educational institution. Each school has its own form to which the headdress is attached, tie, outerwear and even socks. Each prestigious school has its own logo.
In Germany There was never a single school form. Some schools introduced a single school clothing that is not a form, since students can participate in its development.
In France The situation is similar, each school has its own form, but a single school form existed only in 1927-1968.
In 1918, the form was canceled. After the revolution, they did not think about it until 1949, when the boys introduced gymnasters with a standing collar, and for girls - brown dresses with a black apron.
In 1962, the boys changed in gray woolen costumes, and in 1973 - in costumes of blue half-walled fabric, with emblem and aluminum buttons. In the 1980s, boys and girls sewed blue jackets. And in 1992, the school form was canceled, from the Law "On Education", excluded the corresponding string.
From September 1, 2013 in Russian schools. In some regions, schools will follow the recommendations of local authorities, in the others - to establish the requirements for students' clothing themselves.

In 1984, a blue-colored suit was introduced for girls, consisting of skirt-trapezing with folds in front, a jacket with overhead pockets and vests. The skirt could be worn either with a jacket, or with a vest, or the whole costume immediately. An obligatory addition to school uniform, depending on the age of the student, was October (in primary schools), Pioneer (in secondary classes) or Komsomolsky (in high school) icons.
The school form, familiar to today's disciples on Soviet films, becomes mandatory after the Great Patriotic War - in 1949. From now on, the boys were obliged to wear military gymnasters with a collar rack, and the girls were brown woolen dresses with a black apron, and on holidays the dress could be black, and the apron is white. The fashion school form appeared in our country in the 1970s, however, only boys. Gray woolen pants and jackets were replaced on trousers and jackets from a half-walled tissue of blue. Cut the jacket reminded classic denim jackets.
In Russia, a single school uniform was carried over the second half of the 20th century, but the first law on the introduction of a single form was adopted in the 19th century. In 1834, the general system of all civil uniforms in the empire was approved - a gymnasium and student uniform entered this system. Until 1917, the form was a class character, as they can allow their training in the gymnasium only children of rich parents. However, soon after the revolution, in the framework of the fight against bourgeois remnants and the heritage of the Tsarsco-police regime, in 1918 decree was issued, which canceled the wearing of school uniforms.
In Turkey, almost all schoolchildren in all state and private educational institutions are shaped. Most often, the color of the shape is blue. School clothes are different from students of the initial and senior school. For example, the girls of sundresses and long dresses change to the skirts to the knees, shirts and vests.
Japanese schoolchildren love their shape, which leads history from the 19th century. It is one of the main symbols of the country and is very popular with tourists. Girls wear Sailor Fuchus - a sailor, low-heeled shoes and socks to the knees. And so that long socks do not slip throughout the day, schoolgirls glue them to the legs with special glue. Boys in Japan wear "Gakurana" - it is a dark jacket with a numbling of buttons and a rack collar, as well as pants.
School shape in India is worn throughout school life. Moreover, single-color sari is worn as school uniforms only in some Indian schools. Most school girls go in shirts and skirts, and boys in dark trousers and a bright shirt. Sometimes kits complement ties.
US public schools never presented strict requirements for appearance Schoolchildren, so a student in jeans, colored T-shirt and sneakers - typical appearance of an American schoolboy. However, from the mid-90s, the form was still introduced, but it does not differ in business style. It is usually one-color T-shirts, shorts, pants or skirts of dark color. If the school is private, then there will most likely the form will be with a mandatory emblem of the school. Unlike other countries in all US schools, there is a mandatory dress code that establishes the school itself. Among the main requirements are not to wear mini skirts, transparent blouses, T-shirts with obscene inscriptions, etc.
The United Kingdom in choosing a school form is famous for conservatism. The school uniform in England was not only mandatory, but did not change in many prestigious educational institutions for decades. Traditionally, the prestigestivity of the school was determined by cloth, color and stripes with an emblem on a tie or jacket. And until now, British clothes for schoolchildren are always a complete set, which includes a strict jacket or sweater, shirt, tie, skirt or pants, shoes and even golf or socks.
The school uniform in America is common, mainly in private schools. And, as a rule, contains an emblem of an educational institution. In ordinary public schools, most often there is no school uniforms. But there are defined clothes style rules (Dress Code). Moreover, different institutions have different rules. For example, the length of the mini-skirt should not be shorter fingertips on their hands, transparent clothing is prohibited, there should be no obscene inscriptions on the shirts, etc. As a rule, schoolchildren wear simple clothes: jeans, wide T-shirts, sneakers.

Freedom in American schools
Unlike other countries, children in American schools have more freedom, which is expressed not only regarding the form of clothing, but also other points. For example, each schoolboy has its own locker, there are no permanent classes when all students learn together for years, there is no single program, the student takes those items that they are interested. There is also no rigor in behavior manner. For example, students can sit on the floor, etc.
In the relationship of school uniforms, various discussions still go to the USA. Since some believe that it is better to carry out a mandatory uniform, others refute. Especially these discussions were popular during the reign of President Bill Clinton, as it was he who actively supported the idea of \u200b\u200bthe introduction of a school uniform. So in 1996, the US Department of Education issued a special school manual in which the benefits of the uniform were listed. The report described the conduct of various experiments related to the introduction of the form in some schools. In particular, it was said that as a result of the introduction of a form, fewer crimes in schools became, and the total educational discipline was improved.
I suggest watching a video about school clothes (Dress Code) in Russian schoolgirl, who studied in an American school.
On the other hand, the mandatory school uniform in America may prevent the development of its own taste, style, comfort in children. And may also bring some inconvenience for parents. Therefore, in the United States, after all, they refused to introduce constant uniforms. And they gave this question at the discretion of local authorities. In this regard, the leadership of each school itself decides which rules wearing clothes. Of course, parents play a role in this case. Since at the expense of their budget, in fact, there are schools in America.
Disputes over the wearing children's forms in schools have been conducted for a long time. Some believe that the same appearance equalizes the guys of all social layers. It allows you to better concentrate on learning, without being distracted by a new shorter blouse on the desk or fashionable classmate jeans. Others, on the contrary, vote against, stating that such measures do not give teenagers to express themselves, turning everyone into one-color mass. However, the obligation of the form at school does not mean that it should be gray and ugly. Surely many of you, looking through foreign films about the teenagers, noticed, for example, how the school form of American schoolchildren looks stylishly. In America, her wearing is assumed in private schools or even elite. In public educational institutions there are either a non-stated dress code, which is observed at the solemn events, or its complete absence. Consider closer that the American school form is.
For girls
As mentioned earlier, the school uniform in America can be completely different. Very often it can be found in the emblem of school or college. Thus, students of a certain institution can be distinguished from the disciples of the other. In addition to the emblem, there are no more restrictions. Color, material and style forms for schoolchildren are determined by the director, teachers and parents. The most common option for girls is a skirt, blouse and jacket.
Skirt is most often short or medium length, wedges. Dark blue, green or burgundy color, as well as a fairly popular cell. Blouse fitted cut, white. And the jacket of the same color that was chosen as the main one. Quite often, in addition to him, schoolchildren also have a vest that wearing over the shirt. For faster weather, the choice falls on the Polo T-shirt, which is also complemented by a jacket or a monochrome half-man in buttons. The American school form for girls is distinguished by restraint, but at the same time it looks quite stylish so that the younger generation does not have rejection to her daily sock.
Form for young men
Boys and young men shape selected with a guideline for the convenience and compliance with the rules of the school dress code. It is usually gray or beige. White or light shirt and jacket with emblem. Also, depending on the weather conditions of a particular place where the school institution is located, the shirt can be replaced by the polo or have short sleeves. The American school form for boys and boys looks almost always easy, even slightly baggy. But young people are more mobile in their essence rather than girls, therefore, the clothes should be the most appropriate. But such a style is more often used in schools less elite, where equality is above all the rest. In the more expensive private educational institutions, the shape of the young man is thought out to the smallest detail. Why her general view looks more neat and stylish.
Other school attributes
Looking through movies or photos where American schoolchildren are shown, it is impossible not to note some of the stylish details of their images. For example, tie. He is worn like girls and boys. It can be bright, again in the official color of the school, or just a monophonic, restrained shade. Also an interesting detail of American school form is a golf. Looks like onions incredibly stylish. In general, I must say that it is precisely that the golfs give the very chic image as a whole. White to knees or high burgundy with two white stripes, they can be very different. In the photo - American school form. You can see how pupil school students look like.
Backpacks or bags, although not belong to school uniform and are chosen by students regarding the dependence of common requirements, but nevertheless perfectly complement the general appearance. A fashionable monotonous backpack perfectly comes up to a restrained student.
Non-stirred dress code
As noted earlier, the school form is far from each educational institution. Even on the contrary, about half of schools costs at the moment without it. But still, in the absence of an approved form of clothing in schools, a non-stated dress code is often present. Guys most often wear jeans and t-shirts, sweaters and pants. These are usually comfortable and comfortable things that are not constraintful movements. However, certain bans are still available.
What is forbidden to wear American schoolchildren?
For example, girls in the educational institution can not appear in too frank T-shirts and dresses and in too short skirts. The young men are forbidden to wear hanging trousers, talking in the wrong places. Such a style was fashionable several years ago among young people, with which school principals had to fight hard. Also in the form of American schoolchildren is extremely welcome baggy. Since, unfortunately, one of America's huge problems is shooting in children's institutions. Based on this, large and dense clothing items are undesirable, because they can easily carry weapons or prohibited drugs. Another rule of American schools is a ban on wearing metal chains on clothes or bags. Again, in order to security other students, because Such an object can be used as a weapon. The last of which there will be almost any school is absolutely any piercing, except ears. True, in certain cases, the student is permissible to have an earrings in a non-standard place, with the written permission of parents.
Support Group
Almost all American schools and colleges have their basketball and football teams. So, there are fans. As well as girls from the Support Group - Cherlders, the appearance of which is always very noteworthy and the yaps. In the interruptions, they dance dynamic dances with elements of gymnastics. Most often, girls from the support group perform in the same bright shirts with a sports team logo, short skirts and golf.
In general, the American school form can be considered a good example for imitation. But our country does not stand still, more and more educational institutions enter the wearing form to the mandatory requirement. And it can not but rejoice.
Do you know how schoolchildren are dressed in other countries?
How the current schoolchildren of the former huge country are dressed and what is the attitude to this school form now, we do not know.
We all have different opinions, everyone has different moods, and everyone remains at their own. And yet, the time when the students of ancient Greece were put on top of Chlamyda's chimons, and in ancient India it was necessary to wear even in a strong heat, dhoti pants and shirt-Kurt, not so far. And the tradition is sealed into a special form of clothing, which distinguishes non-student definition from the student, no matter how cool, remained. Although in Russia the XIX century was not considered to go to the gymnasium form and after lessons, and even encouraged. But ... Times run, years leave, and here France, Germany and good half of Europe have already abolished in general any form, and the defiant of the rate drags multicolored worsens, blowing chewing bubbles.
But still traditions remain and remain manners. Let's see how and what students are dressed in the students in which the school uniforms were not canceled. We will see that unusual in such clothes, or feel nostalgia. And we will see that you can even be proud of the "my" school and your school form.
In our opinion, it is at all and good to have his own style, its emblem, its difference and be smalley disciplined in everything.
Japan
In Japan, the school form appeared at the end of the XIX century. At the present time, the school form is in most private and public schools, but the only shape and coloring does not exist.
Japanese schoolgirls, 1920, 1921
At the beginning of the 20s of the 20th century, VKKA in the women's school fashion was included by the European Sample Sailors. Fans of Eastern Culture call them to Japanese manners sailifuce Or Sailor Fuchus (sailor suit). Such dresses were ordered from a specific manufacturer only for pupils of a particular school. The sailors were and remain popular in many schools, but they all differ in the details of cut and color.
Often on the Internet you can find images of high school students in very short shaped skirts. Naturally, the form is not sewn with such short skirts, the schoolgirls shorten them themselves. Fashion for short school skirts appeared in the early 90s under the influence of the popular Japanese pop performer We are Amuro. Basically, leading from above and attracting the belt, and on top of the champ and the belt closes with a shoe, a jacket or vest. In such a form, Japanese schoolgirls defill, as a rule, from home to school, and before entering the school, the skirts are lowered to the last length. While in the 70s-80s in the Soviet school, young fashionistas (and their mothers), the shape was shortened forever, cutting off the "excess" length and stitching the hem.
Sri Lanka
In all state and most private schools, Sri Lanka, students wear school uniforms.
The form for boys consists of a white shirt with short sleeves and blue shorts (up to 10 class, about 15 years). In solemn cases, a white shirt with long sleeves and white shorts is worn. Young men over 10 grade instead of shorts wear pants.
The school uniform for girls differs from school to school, however, as a rule, it consists entirely of white matter. Possible differences: a dress with short sleeves or sleeves, with a collar or without. A tie is usually attached to a white dress.

Butane
Bhutan's school form is a variant of traditional national clothing, which is called "GO" - for boys and "Kira" - for girls. Each school has its own color.
Cuba
In Cuba, the form is obligatory, and not only for schoolchildren, but also for students. School-form color can be determined in which class a child is learning.
You can select three basic types of shape.
Younger classes - burgundy white. Girls dress in burgundy sundresses and white blouses. Boys wear burgundy pants with white shirts. Both boys and girls wear brazing ties in the style of those who wore Soviet schoolchildren. True, in Cuba ties are not only red, but also blue.
Middle classes - white top and yellow bottom. For girls, this is yellow skirts, and for boys pants. Girls also wear high white socks under their sunny skirts. This option for older students.
Senior classes - shades of blue, or rather, blue top and dark blue bottom. All also for girls is a blouse skirt, for boys - shirt with pants
North Korea
Pupils in North Korea are similar to Soviet pioneers. The main integral accessory to school uniform is a red tie, a symbol of the communist movement. There is no single standard form.
Vietnam
The form in Vietnam may vary depending on the school or district where the school is located. But, as a rule, the most common shape is a light top, a dark bottom and a red tie on the pioneer manner. Schoolchildren of junior and middle classes are wearing such form. High school students are the traditional National Clothes of Aozay (long flush shirt, reliable over the pants) of white. High school students prefer dark pants and white shirts, but without a tie. In remote villages, school uniforms are not worn.

Traditional clothes are not only beautiful, but also comfortable
England
In modern England, every school has its own form. School symbolism and a certain style that highlight students are widely used here. Moreover, in the prestigious schools of England, the form is the subject of pride. Jackets, pants, ties and even socks in no case should be deviated from a given tradition. This is considered not just a violation, but also disapplied to a particular educational institution.
Below are the most interesting, in our opinion, the school of England.
