Persuasive Writing About School Uniforms.

Persuasive Writing
WALT; write a text that will persuade others to believe in your opinion.
We know we have achieved this when;
  1. Introduction: stating the argument.
  2. A paragraph to explain each reason for your argument.
  3. Conclusion; restating the argument.
  4. Emotive language e.g. dangerous, unsafe.
  5. Complex sentences.
  6. Persuasive words
  7. Persuasive sentence starters
  8. Share your personal opinion
  9. Each paragraph has a main point {usually at the beginning}.
Students should wear uniform at school.
Pro’s {for}
Con’s {against}
  • If you go out you are representing your school.
  • If a person see’s you in public they can identify what school you’re from.
  • You will need more clothes if wearing mufti and this will be more costly.
  • Mufti clothes would not last as long perhaps if they are cheap and made from less durable fabric.
  • Your parents will have to buy you new clothes often.
  • It’s easier to run around in normal clothes rather than school uniforms.
  • Normal clothes are comfier than school uniforms.

Intro; in my opinion students shouldn’t wear school uniform to school.
1.Mufti clothes are comfier to wear.
  • It is easier to run around and play in mufti because it is lightweight and mufti normally fits you better than school uniform.
  • Sometimes you don’t feel good wearing your school uniform e.g. because it doesn't fit or because you don’t like the style or the fabric.
2.  It is cheaper to wear mufti.
  • School uniforms can sometimes cost a lot of money. If you were to go to mainland uniforms it would cost $109 for a t-shirt, coloutes and a polar fleece but for $40 you can get a jersey, pants and a shirt from the warehouse.
  • Instead of spending your parents money you could just wear the clothes that you already have.
3.  Renewing the uniform.
  • It costs heaps of money when you have to buy a new uniform every year.
  • If we wear mufti it stretches so you can wear it for longer.
Con; Overall I think that wearing mufti to school will be better for you and your parents bank account!

In my opinion students should NOT wear school uniform.


It think that mufti is comfier to wear rather than school uniform because It is easier to run around and play in mufti because it is lightweight. Also because mufti normally fits you better than school uniform. Another reason is because sometimes you don’t feel good wearing your school uniform e.g. because it doesn't fit or because you don’t like the style, fabric or the colour.


It is cheaper to wear mufti. I have found that school uniforms can cost a lot of money. If you were to go to Mainland Uniforms it would cost $109 for a t-shirt, culottes and a polar fleece, but for a total of $40 you can get a jersey, pants and a shirt from the warehouse. So instead of spending your parents money you could just wear the clothes that you already have. Wearing the clothes that you already have is a good thing because parents always complain that their children don’t wear all of their clothes and that buying clothes is a waste of money because of that reason.


Renewing the uniform happens almost every year which is a pain for parents. It costs heaps of money when you have to buy a new uniform every year for your children. If we wear mufti it stretches so you can wear it for longer e.g. some mufti lasts for a year or two.


Overall I think that wearing mufti to school will be better for you and your parents bank account!



I think that I’m level three because I have used information about the topic and reasons supporting my argument.
