School uniforms in government schools

Uniforms are compulsory for school students in the UAE. All public schools follow a unified school uniform for students. The unified appearance aims to provide a sense of equality and justice amongst all pupils, regardless of backgrounds or social status and to manifest the UAE's national and cultural identity.
