Our Suggestions:
1) Every form can choose the style and the colour of the school uniform.
2) It won’t be only a blouse and a skirt for girls (but also trousers or jeans) and not only a classical suit for boys.
3) We’d like to see a school badge.
4) One day a week is for FREE FORM, not all days in a school uniform.

19. School Uniform in Britain
Most pupils in Britain go to state schools where uniform isn’t important.
Those who attend private or public schools wear uniform.
The boys usually wear a white shirt and a tie. Over the shirt they wear a school jacket. The school jacket is called a blazer. They have the school badge on the pocket of the blazer and on the cap. The tie, the blazer and the cap are the colour of the school.
English schoolgirls wear a blouse and a skirt. They wear their school blazer, too. Their hat has the school badge on the front.

20. And what do the designers suggest?
You can see costumes and suits of different colours: dark blue, grey, taracot. There is a white blouse, a blazer and a jacket, a trousers suit for girls and skirts of the latest style. I think some of the styles are nice and comfortable. As for me, I’ll put on this modern costume.
