  • This country's weird obsession with school uniforms. Grim.

  • Provided they aren’t super prescriptive and posh I’m not fussed, in fact I’m quite pro. No one gets judged for the quality/fashion of their clothes, no arguments in the morning about what they want to wear.

    Maybe not, and yet bullying and classism is far worse here than in the American and Canadian school systems. (Anecdata; I attended schools in the US and UK)

  • 'Speaking as a parent', having previously been loosely in favour of them I am now very pro.

    Our nursery has a jumper and t-shirt uniform, and it makes life so much easier. The idea of having to fuck around with a range of clothes come school age is a totally off-putting.
