Do you agree with this statement? Give reasons for your response.

I strongly agree with the statement because that will encourage the students to have greater respect for the teacher. they will be more polite because they will see that the teacher is dressed in a professional manner. this will also motivate the students to be good students and in the future they will want to have qualities of their teacher. Dress code in the primary schools is very important!

I agree that a dress code is very important in Primary School. A school uniform gives the teachers and students identity, a sense of belonging to that particular school. When students use their uniforms to attend school they are practicing obedience and responsibility.

A formal and honest dress code for teachers is essential to provide students with a good role model. Even outside of the classroom a teacher must remember that his/her way of dressing can say many things about his/her lifystyle. Professionalism and lifestyle should match.

I definitely agree with this statement because it is very important to follow a dress code in primary schools. If we want students to follow a dress code, why not we as teacher? Through the dress code we can show others what kind of persons we are and that we expect students to respect us as professionals.

'The way a teacher dresses has a great deal to do with how students react to him or her,'' (Mr. Mosley said, adding that students are not likely to respect teachers who dress slovenly. ''Teachers want respect as professionals; then they should dress as professionals do.'')
