No uniforms in elementary, children can wear their own as long as they don't have anti-gov content on it. (etc shirts that have anti-communist pictures or text) However a badge representing their school should be worn.

School uniforms are outlawed. Students can wear anything that's not inappropriate (e.g. swastikas). The only form of "Uniform" is a wristband with a number on it. The number matches the division you're in (We don't use the year system, which is why it's important because you can't tell from age).

Around a quarter of The Great Universe's are required to wear school uniforms. Those who are required to wear uniforms tend to wear similar clothing to those who aren't.
Boys wear shorts, sandals and t-shirts (although younger boys and those in warmer climates tend not to wear shirts so much). Their clothing is usually darker, duller colours, but there are exeptions.
Girls wear skirts, sandals and t-shirts (younger girls also tend not to wear t-shirts so much, but this is restricted to warmer climates and tends to taper off as girls mature).

Children can wear whatever they want. Boys can come in dresses, (there are no gender-based accepted dress codes, or gender roles of any sort, in Syndicapolis) and students can even come nude if they want to. The only exception is if they're going to the educational facilities in a workplace where safety precautions are necessary, for example if they're going to a laboratory, they must wear lab coats, goggles and gloves if needed.

Even though public school students are free to wear whatever they want, most private schools require their students to wear their own uniforms for various reasons.

Are students required to wear uniforms in school? Yes, it is required by law. While uniforms are usually paid for by the parents, schools are required by law to provide uniforms in case the parents cannot afford them.
If so, what do they wear? The style is left up to the school's discretion. Schools in our southeast Asian colonies tend to adopt styles similar to those in Fuso, while those in Karlsland proper, as well as those in Africa, tend to use a style typical of most European schools that require uniforms (Blazer, tie, shirt, pants for men, skirt for women).

All students in Kazirstan are required to wear uniforms. They have been required under federal law since 1979. They are provided free of charge by the government. (It is important to note that there are no private schools in Kazirstan).

Public School uniforms vary slightly in colour and design by region, but all have a design similar to the ones shown below. There are male and female uniforms, but if a male wishes to wear the female uniform (or vice-versa) it is allowed.

After completing one year compulsory military service at age 16, students may choose to leave the military and continue with post-secondary education, or stay and attend military school. Military school uniforms are gender-neutral and are also provided free of charge by the state.

If so, what do they wear? Private Schools require it. Girls wear nothing but knee highs, and shoes of course, and guys wear suits. Nobody knows why girls need to have no clothes, and the feminist party is trying to stop this.

Tatran school uniform components:

• A side cap/ garrison cap with a red star or a black beret with a red star.
• There is no official policy on hairstyles. It is popular for boys to have long flowing hair, which they tie in a pony tail held by a black silk ribbon during strenuous activities. Girls often have bob cuts that are parted at the side, or curled or waved.
• A neckerchief/ scarf. There are no official regulations regarding materials or colors, but calico cotton with floral prints or a fine silk are both particularly popular. These are sometimes even worn without the rest of the uniform. It is always tied; woggles are never used.
• A high-collared tunic/ jacket, typically khaki or olive drab in color and made from cotton drill or poplin, and with an attached belt, epaulette styled shoulder straps, and four expandable bellows pockets (these are useful for holding small implements such as pens, pencils, screw drivers, small slide rules, and so on).
• Lapel/ collar pins indicate the student’s grade level in various subjects.
• Riding breeches/ jodhpurs or knickerbockers/ breeks during the colder months of the year and Bermuda shorts (typically of khaki drill, but sometimes of Madras cloth) or chinos during the warmer months of the year. Girls have the option of wearing a pleated Black Watch tartan skirt instead (it must be no shorter than just above the knees).
• Ankle boots with leather or canvas gaiters or more commonly wool puttees.
• A canvas or leather map case/ messenger bag is used to carry books and school supplies.
• A lunch pail and thermos (not technically part of the uniform, but these are ubiquitous).

1) Schools have the right to implement uniforms but it is very rare for them to do so. Sometimes, schools have optional uniforms though.
2) Students can wear anything they want as long as it is not inappropriate if their school doesn't require them to wear a uniform

No public school have uniforms though some private ones have one officially. Very few students at these schools actually wear the uniforms however, and it's typically not enforced.

Uniforms are mandatory but the exact composition is at the discretion of the school in question.

Students in private schools may or may not wear uniforms depending on the place they attend.

No uniforms are allowed in state schools, however.

Students have to wear a uniform with the logo of their school but a degree of customisation is possible (e.g. Different colours, slightly different helmet symbols, etc.) A common theme is usually needed, though.

Of course, school uniforms are required when going to school!

For the Wanzhounese, school uniforms make it less hassle to choose what to wear when going to school and makes identity easier and more secure which is why IDs are also important. Unique design per school may come from the fact that the monarchies of Wanchou enjoyed putting on fine and exquisite clothes and would even donate simple yet brand new, comfortable clothes to the poor.

When European imports came to the island nation, concepts like façon/ faichon (fashion, often translated to 花樣) where certainly not foreign to them and among the people, be it the masses or the high-class people or aristocracy, clothes and costumes provided a form of artistic expression and is considered an important necessity so people innovated throughout the centuries in order to adapt well to the seasons. The emperor himself highly priced silk and cotton and many Wanzhounese prefer to have their garments tailored for highly traditional events and special occasions. People often avoided polyester and too much synthetic fibers in their pants and uniforms with the exception of theater, sporting events and convenience but people of course, wear ready-to-wear casual clothes when going out.

There are some schools, though, that do not require a uniform and usually this is found in public schools where there is a strict dress code. This is erroneously attributed by many as a solely American influence due to common stereotype where as in regions that where under direct Japanese influence, students maybe required to wear an 'uwabaki' before entering their schools. This is a declining practice and nowadays, foreign in most parts of Xi'chou and Saiping whereas it is still prevalent in Beikoku, particularly the capitalist South. Leather shoes are worn when going to school and maybe replaced by rubber shoes during physical education and fitness. Children are taught at an early age that leather shoes are expensive and should be taken care of and not to be used when crossing a basketball court as it may damage the flooring. As for some schools belonging to certain religious sects and public schools found in very remote rural or even mountainous areas (although a very few still exist nowadays), students are allowed to wear slippers instead where there maybe tough terrain along the journey to school.

In most cases, school uniforms are plain and simple in public schools but are well-adapted to Wanchou's very cold climate and made from material that is warm and comfortable to students. It also kind of varies depending on which part of the country you are and what kind of school you are attending but these are just the common types of uniform found in each crudely-defined geopolitical region of the country. Prestigious or highly exclusive private schools may reflect the status of their institutions in the clothes of their students following a more British/ French model.

A strange practice in most schools though is to teach children and teenagers to stand the winter cold inside the classroom so younger male students might wear shorts in elementary until to a certain grade and girls may wear skirts. We do protect our children from chilblain and frostbite and it is important to wear additional proper clothing when going outside (ie. mittens, bonnets, scarves, jackets, sweaters, winter earmuffs, ushankas, beanies). Universities may or may not have a uniform, though, while in high school, there maybe a day (often Friday) where casual clothes are permitted as long as it follows the dress code.
