Re: School Dress Codes

I never said that all schools are like this, I was purely talking about my own experience. This is how the system in Israel works.
There are public secular schools, public religious schools, and public arab schools. There is a "base curriculum" of certain subjects which all schools must teach in order to be considered public and get support from the government, but outside of that they have a certain amount of freedom in choosing which subjects to teach and how much of an emphasis to put on them.

The high school diploma is given based on matriculation, and you can matriculate in almost all subjects, including the religious ones, in government-overseen examinations.

For homeschooling and such, there is also the possibility of doing "external" examinations, meaning matriculating without going to school, so you get a high school diploma without having to actually go to school.

Ah, ok. I got the impression from your first comment that you were defending uniforms in general based on your experiences. Sorry, I think I misread it.

Thanks for the explanation :)

Well, I do personally think that people make a much bigger deal over uniforms than necessary, and that wearing clothes that don't reflect you for a few hours a day is not the worst thing ever. I think it stems from a culture that increasingly demands to be able to do what I want when I want otherwise I am oppressed, and I disagree with this fundamentally.

I can accept that other people feel differently on the subject.

I don't think anyone is saying that you're "oppressed" for having to wear a uniform...at least nobody here.

I'm kind of confused now as to whether that was ultimately your point, or not.
