What do I think of the school form? I am against the idea that the school form is introduced at my school. Firstly it is uncomfortable, since in our country the autumn, winter, and spring are different as seasons. Secondly the school form is only valid for wearing at school, and it is useless otherwise. Lastly, it is also quite expensive to buy school form each year. Of course everything depends on the fabric, but in case of school forms it is often of bad quality. Students spend many hours a day at school, and wearing uncomfortable or unpleasant to touch clothes can be quite disturbing. I hope my suggestions are seriously taken into account.
