School uniform in Kazakhstan nowadays
In 1992, mandatory school uniforms were abolished. Today, there is no unified standard uniform in Kazakhstan; however, certain schools may have their own uniform that students are required to wear. Educational institutions without a uniform may also have a certain dress code.

How do I imagine the school uniform?
All in all school uniform has advantages and disadvantages. We strongly believe that the school uniform is necessary and has benefits. However, we think that each school should design its school uniform from time to time and let pupils and teachers decide on it.

The girls would like to choose a skirt, trousers, or breeches .The teachers would like to see the boys wearing the ties, our parents want school uniform to be inexpensive and comfortable.
