At Fujishima High School in Fukui City, a unique initiative is underway to allow students to freely choose whether to wear uniforms or come to school in plain clothes.

This initiative was planned by the student council as a period during which students can freely choose their clothes.The rules of Fujishima High School require students to wear uniforms (omitted).
The aim is to provide an opportunity to think about how uniforms should be in the future.

From the 20th, 1019 students at all schools are wearing their favorite clothes such as uniforms, plain clothes, and gym clothes.It is considered to be the first attempt at a full-time high school in the prefecture,On the first day of the 20th, the uniform group and gym uniform group accounted for the majority.

On the 2st, the second day, the students went to school in their favorite clothes.While there are many classes with only a handful of plain-clothes students, there are some classes where more than half of the students wear plain clothes.

Students who chose plain clothes said, "I'm wearing my usual clothes. I feel like I'm more focused because I'm wearing something different than usual." I was able to work on it. Respecting diversity is now being emphasized in society as a whole.If you can continue this effort, please continue.

Koki Tsubota, the student council president who planned this initiative, said, "More than I thought.Low rate of wearing plain clothesBut that is also my choice.I think I'm getting a taste of who I am. (For juniors) If you change (school rules) by advancing the discussion, change it.If you don't change it, I want you to make a meaningful choice not to change it."

At Fujishima High School, the sailor suit and gakuran, which are old-fashioned uniforms for men and women, have been introduced.
We are considering a shift to blazer-type genderless uniforms.
In order to raise the question, "Are uniforms necessary in the first place?", we came up with this initiative.

Consideration

Nationwide, the old men's and women's sailor uniforms for women's sailor uniforms have been abolished.
There is a continuing trend toward the introduction of a free choice system for blazers and slack skirts for both men and women.
In many cases, there is a trend to switch to the new uniform as it is, but the student council plays a central role in saying, "It doesn't matter if you wear the uniform or not."
Efforts that set a free period are very interesting efforts.

However, even if it is said that they do not have to wear uniforms, the fact that the rate of wearing uniforms is still high is
It could also be proof that "uniforms have become a part of students' identities."

In Nagano Prefecture, uniforms are being abolished, but it seems that there are some schools where some students say they want uniforms.

Should uniforms be abolished?
Should we change uniforms to be genderless (without erasing the uniform system itself)?

In addition, there are some voices critical of genderless uniforms themselves, and it seems that the future of uniforms is still far from being discussed.

An opportunity to reconsider the role played by uniforms

In the first place, uniforms have a variety of effects beyond imagination.

・Student identity

Of course,

・Items that hide the income disparity of parents in public schools

It will also beIf it is plain clothes, the economic disparity of parents naturally appears in children's clothes.
The uniform also has a role to hide it.

The role played by uniforms around that is also hard to throw away.
