THE ESSENTIALS OF WEARING PROPER SCHOOL UNIFORM

WHEREAS, the Dakok Tamulon Integrated School, as a matter of school policy observe the wearing of school uniform
for proper identification and security purposes, to protect the students in case of untoward incidents and during
emergencies situations;

WHEREAS, according to a study published in the internet wearing of school uniform is a mitigating measure to avoid social
conflict lessen social conflicts within the school. This is so as not all students can keep up with the latest trends in fashion. So, if you
don’t belong in the group when it comes to fashion, you often become the subject of ridicule and mockery
obviously because other students see you as an outcast who doesn’t fit in. If you are in this situation, it
can badly affect your self-esteem and can give rise to many insecurities. But with school uniform, incidents like this can be
prevented 

WHEREAS, however, considering that majority of the Dakok Tamulon Integrated School learners belong to low income-
earning families, most of them have only one or two sets of school uniforms. Wearing said uniforms on a daily basis from
Monday to Friday is a burden they have to bear, not to mention the difficulty of drying before wearing it;

WHEREAS, believing that such difficulty would have an impact on the learner’s performance in school, the Supreme
Student Government (SSG), hereby propose for the
observance of a “One-day Wash Day” for the students, to give them adequate
opportunity to wash and dry their uniforms, and the appropriate time to do that would be every Wednesday of the week

WHEREAS, in order not to defeat the above-mentioned purposes of wearing school uniform despite the observance of the
one-day Wash Day every Wednesday of the week, the Supreme Student Government (SSG) hereby enjoins all the DTIS
learners to observe proper school attire ;
