School uniforms and schools?

[Diatraba]

Our Education System is managed by the Directorate for Education and Social Welfare. We have a maroon blazer (jacket, in other words) with a green tie, grey trousers and black shoes. This is the same throughout the country as the Education System is a nationalised affair.

[Bird the Word]

Uniforms are very neat, very prim, and mandatory for all schools in the nation.

Might I mention that the schoolgirls are quite cute in them?

[Gueraea Savantos]

Public school students are allowed to wear whatever they wish, but private schools, colleges and universities are required to have uniforms.

[Turanbirligi]

the schools in Turan have compulsary uniform from primary to high school. in universities its your decision what to weAR

[Kalasparata]

There are no uniforms of any sort for school, work or anything in this nation exept for badges saying which school there in. This also applkies for work, ect. They can come to school naked if the please, though I don't know where they'll put the badge......

[Rochehaut]

Despite the high appreciation for civil rights in Rochehaut, school uniforms are mandatory. For boys it consists of a white short-sleeved shirt and black trousers. Girls wear a white blouse and a black skirt, with no lenght requirements. Both genders also wear white tennis shoes and their student ID cards. It is also worth noting that all female Rochehautese pants and skirts are low-rise. Female students are also allowed to leave the first button of their blouses open. Rochehaut is a tropical island, after all.

[Dungeyland]

Private Schools can choose whatever uniforms they want. All State Schools don't have a strict uniform policy, but students have to wear smart office wear. There are some rules, which are written below:

Necessary for Boys:
Ties AND/OR Smart Jumper
Shirt
Smart Trousers or Shorts
Brown or Black Shoes

Necessary for Girls:
Smart Trousers or Skirt
Shirt or Blouse
No High Heels

Recommended for Girls:
Ties AND/OR Smart Jumper

[Arabiak]

Public schools do not have a school uniform but a rule on what could be worn.
1-Students must wear clothing that isnt too revealing
2-Students must wear clothing
3-Students that wear shorts must have a certain length(boys must reach under knees while girls must be right above the knees or below the knees by 1-2 inches)

[Charlotte Ryberg]

School uniforms are voluntary across the board but in some schools they are popular because of the close-knit community it creates.

[Kalasparata]

There are no uniforms of any sort for school, work or anything in this nation exept for badges saying which school there in. This also applkies for work, ect. They can come to school naked if the please, though I don't know where they'll put the badge......

Some schools issue uniforms but aren't allowed to forse kids to wear them, keep them in good condition
and can't and students are allowed to wear as much or as little as they wish and the school must fund it

exept for the badge, which is compolsary for everyone for practical reasons and you are allowed to show up 110% naked, even revealing your privates if you wish, but I don't know where the badge will go..................

This applys for males and females

In Kalasparata it is normal for males to wear pants, dresses and/or quilts and normal for femails to wear pants, dresses and/or skirts

And normal for males and females to wear strap less tops and to walk around 110% naked showing their privates. It is socially acceptable and legal to do the above

[Herrebrugh]

top 5

1. Hiadenta College

2. Karl Marx Lyceum

3. Mao Zedong College

4. Honecker tweetalig (Honecker bilingual school)

5. Jacobus Herrebrugh Lyceum

There is a lesson focused primarily on politics:
Staatkunde (Lessons about the nations of the world. Beginning with Herrebrugh, the GDR and the USSR and ending with nations like the USA)

and the other lessons are:
Wiskunde (Math)
Aardrijkskunde (Geography)
Geschiedenis (History)
Natuurkunde (Physics)
Scheikunde (Chemistry)
Biologie (Biology)
Nederlands (Dutch)

and students need to choose three of these lessons:
Duits (German)
Engels (English)
Frans (French)
Russisch (Russian)

Every day the Herrebrughian flag gets hoisted at all schools in the country. At most schools the students then sing the national anthem of Herrebrugh and then the lessons begin, but at the Honecker bilingual school the students first sing the Herrebrughian anthem and then the anthem of East Germany in German.

School uniforms basicly look like the East German FDJ uniforms.

[Kirhean Tribes]

Widespread application of nanotechnology has allowed for a total freedom of information exchange within the Kirhean Tribes, as such all knowledge commonly available to the average citizen is merely a thought away. The result is that "conventional" schools no longer exist, as they would be redundant. Until sexual adulthood, the focus of a Kirhean Juvenile's education is on how to interpret the vast pool of knowledge they possess, the teachers are typically family and other members of the tribe. Upon sexual maturity, a Kirhean youth is expected to choose a triple career path. First they must choose their field of study, known as their theoretical field, this is so they can contribute to efforts to extend Kirhean understanding of the sciences. Second they must choose a technical field, in which to apply their studies of theory for which they receive wages from the government. Finally, they are expected to take a trade, to prevent our people from becoming too dependent on foreign sources of goods, materials and services. The third career need not be a science, many of our greatest mathematicians were also accomplished professional musicians.


As for uniforms, they are unnecessary. Our people are free to don whatever clothing they choose, if they feel it necessary to wear clothing at all.(though during periods of inhospitable weather the government may require citizens to wear clothing for health reasons)

[Adauchi]

Adauchi's public schools are officially free to choose whichever dress code they deem most suitable for their location, this freedom is excercised by nearly every public school in the form of mandatory uniform dress codes - general consensus among the Education Directorate is that such mandatory dress codes must be financed by the school enforcing them; as such each student recieves 2 full uniforms at the beginning of every year.

[Imperialist Reich]

Uniforms are compulsory in schools although we give the choice for students on how to wear them (for example - the use of top buttons). Uniforms are usually black or navy blue. It is a very rare sight to see bright coloured uniforms.

[Rejistania]

You let women wear pants? How utterly barbaric!

Pants are much more practical than skirts for many reasons; women are discouraged from wearing the latter here because of this but are free to wear what they like.

Why would they need to where something practical, its not like housework is particularily strenuous.

It does require endurance and often strength. Thus it is a typical male activity in the 'tani.

[Skarlocke]

Uniforms are compulsory, yet each school is allowed their own choice of colour and insignia related to that school.

[The HURD]

Schools? How quaint!

-- Richard Ts'o, teacher

[Achalya Santis]

Depends on each state's board of education.

The federal government is limited to put up any standards, and thus gives that choice to the states. Some enforce uniforms, like conservative Arapaima, while others do not, like liberal Corola. Even more complicated is Zacatecas, whose uniform policy is left to the counties, not the state board. Uniforms are wide and varied, and any "same name" occurence is purely coincidential. (Or, maybe?...)

Uniforms are very neat and mandatory in all schools.

At primary schools, students wear a school jumper in its colour with the school's badge on it, over a school polo top of the same design, and trousers/skirt*.

At secondary level, uniforms are all roughly the same style (blazer, shirt, tie, trousers/skirt*) but colour and decoration are up to individual schools. Often schools will proscribe an optional V-neck grey jumper, to be worn under the blazer. Prefects, student librarians, choristers, etc., wear appropriate badges on the left lapel.

At the Imperial Grammar Schools and private schools, the boys' blazer is substituted by a tail-coat for school formal events, but is otherwise optional. Prefects are required to wear peaked-caps, and the Head Boy/Girl may carry a military officers' cane (they are not allowed to be used for corporal punishment). The peaked-caps are removed in lesson time and when the prefect wishes their jurisdiction to be ignored, eg. in common-rooms.

At universities, students wear suits to their own taste.

At all levels, students are allowed to express themselves as individuals (except at formal events) by their choice of overcoat and badges on the right lapel. Also, a non-uniform day is held once per term, often in aid of some charitable organisation or another.

* - Girls may opt for trousers, and boys for a skirt, as is considered appropriate by the individual.

[TurtleShroom]

TurtleShroom's educational system recieves a ton of funding. However, uniforms are one of the least-funded items.


In public schools, elementary, middle, and high allow their students to wear what they want (as long as they are wearing something appropriate), but are mandated to wear black floor-length robes over that, except in gym.

Hoods are optional, and each student decides on that, but they have become increasingly popular because of the- well, you know -gangsta fad.
The robes are provided by the school.

Private schools, however, are free to make their own rules.


In college, all male humans wear this:

The cane and top hat are not included (or mandated), but the greatcoat, belt, and pants are provided (a T-shirt or other garment can and should be worn underneath since the coats can be scratchy). Male humans are also allowed to wear shoes of their choice with this uniform, but sandals must have backs. The most popular shoes are sneakers, especially those brand-name ones, athletic shoes, and Nike. The national seal of TurtleShroom is sewn onto the greatcoat where one would normally expect a crest/logo to be.

Female humans' dress codes are not written in stone, but they are expected to not show any cleavage and their skirts or pants must be at least to their kneecaps

---

As for hair, both male and female humans can do anything they want with their hair. This includes color, dye, spiky-hair, and hair covering one eye (scene/emo/in-style hair). They can even opt-out of having hair at all by being bald. The only requirement is that when a teacher speaks to them, students with long/scene/emo/whatever hair that obstructs their eyes must simply move the hair out of the way, to give the teacher respectful eye contact. That can be difficult for human students at times, because they may have to look down at a turtle or mushroom teacher.

Students are allowed to wear various accessories, but because of the lingering Southern Baptist and conservative-syle traditions (no dancing/drinking/gambling heritage), male humans can not pierce their bodies. Female humans may pierce their ears, if they so desire, but only once and on the earlobe. Earrings may be anything that isn't considered "unholy" by the school (e.g. skulls, alcohol bottles, pentagrams), no size is mandated.

Students may wear jewelry over their robes, greatcoats, or other garment, but the pendant/meddallion must be considered "holy" by the school. As such, most "bling" consists of oversized golden crosses, shapes, and other generic symbols. The medallion can be as large as the student desires, but it must remain on their bodies and it must hang no lower than their chest. If queried on what their jewelry/ring/necklace/bling/whatever means, the student must tell the teacher immediantly.

---

Total nudity in school can result in harsh suspensions and corporal punishment (paddling), or both. Not wearing the uniform results in detention.

---

Students are also allowed to wear whatever religiously mandated garments they need to in school, even if it overrides the school uniform. Of course, this excludes parody religions, Pastafarianism, and Satanism (though the black robes that serve as the uniform worn by K-12 worry some superstitious elders). It is not at all uncommon for creatures to be seen wear burqas, veils, necklaces, etc., but loopholes are endlessly exploited. One girl came to school in nothing but a thin bikini "for religious reasons". She was paddled because everyone knew that no religion dictated "thou shalt wear thin, waterproof garments".

---

Teachers lack a dress code, but they must wear clothing, shoes, and apparel appropriate for school.

OOC: this is actually an NS issue. Be sure to choose the one that fits your post here, or vice-versa!

[Unices]

As far as the government of The People's Republic of Unices knows, there are no uniforms in the private schools, but we don't check too often. Even if there were uniforms in private schools, they would be frowned upon because uniforms are tools of conforming collectivists and are against the individual. There are no public schools.

[TurtleShroom]

You let women wear pants? How utterly barbaric!

You let women show off their pretty legs when in school? How utterly distracting from learning!


We here at the republic prefer long pants for our human women. Non-distracting, comfortable for her, and good-looking all the same. They can wear skirts, though, but those are not provided by the school.

[Mid Lothian]

We allow schools to choose for themselves whether they have a uniform or not - the majority of them choose to, though.

However, when children move from compulsory to optional education, the uniform is mostly disgarded.

[Firefights]

We have no uniforms for school...yet but students and staff must be wearing something. We have schools that are just called schools. They're not named after people.

[Devonshire County]

Its entirely up to the school's head teacher. Many headmasters hold a popular vote to decide, so usually there is no uniform, if needs be though then uniforms are usually customisable to a degree.
