Parents, students to be asked whether to keep current uniforms or swap them for tracksuits

The Education Ministry is launching a public consultation exercise in which it is asking teachers, parents and students whether school uniforms should remain the same or be replaced by tracksuits.

A consultation among pupils in middle and secondary schools will be held next week, the ministry said.

Primary school students will also be consulted through focus groups.

The ministry will then consult with parents and educators.

 

The ministry said that should it be decided to replace the current uniforms with tracksuits there will be a phasing-in period.
