In
numerous countries the social everyday life is characterized by students
wearing school uniforms. During the past years the school uniform has also been
part of discussions e. g. about brand clothing or revealing clothes which some students
wear in Germany. Some say that the school uniform reduces the social pressure which
students have to deal with. Others say that it hinders children from enjoying
their individual taste. Many private schools prefer school clothes – a
modification of the school uniform with garments in the same style but e. g. in
different colors. The unified dress code at accadis International School Bad
Homburg simplifies everyday school life and promotes the solidarity amongst the
students.
One
Status Symbol Less
By wearing standardized clothing our students do
not attach importance to fashion trends. During the school day they focus on essential
matters. Clothes being a status symbol does not play a role anymore.
At accadis ISB both the Elementary and Secondary School students wear the school clothes. Thus the students develop a sense
of community and identify with their school. Only the Preschool students wear individual clothes. At this age the children are not yet
aware of different fashion styles.
Quality
and Transparency
The accadis ISB school clothes are cut just like
brand clothing and are contemporary as well as colorful. The school logo is the
only decoration. accadis ISB puts importance on the clothes‘ quality and
transparency during the production process. The manufacturer of our school
clothes, Dress for School, guarantees high load capacity and good
wearing comfort. Furthermore they produce without child labor and ensure fair
working conditions.
Save
Costs and Promote Self-Confidence
Buying the school clothes
is easy. The parents can order the clothing via the online
shop. The costs are limited.
As needed, the families pay up to 200 Euros a year. Compared to the prices of
brand clothing the invested sum is manageable. As another positive side effect
the unified school clothes promote the children’s self-confidence. Especially
teenagers, who have to deal with an enormous social pressure and self-doubts
during puberty, thereby have one worry less. Their classmates value them for
their personality instead of the brands they wear.
