Sample text 2:

Prons

• Less time needed to get ready in     the morning
• Less expensive
• Personality becomes more     important than looks
• Makes everyone look equal (no   bullying because of looks)
• Makes sure there are no   inappropriate clothes

Cons

• Stops students from expressing   themselves (no right to freedom   of expression)
• Uniforms are often   uncomfortable and have an old-   fashioned design
• Forcing students to wear a school   uniform can ignore their religious   and cultural needs
