More than 18 million students across Turkey will start their classes on September 8. Notable regulations regarding school uniforms are being implemented in the new term. Minister of National Education Yusuf Tekin answered questions about uniform selection and implementation in an interview with Nuran Çakmakçı from Hürriyet newspaper.
EVERY SCHOOL WILL DETERMINE ITS OWN UNIFORM
Tekin stated that with the regulatory change, each school will now define its own uniform, saying, "We took this step in line with the requests from teachers, parents, and school administrations. The uniforms for primary, secondary, and high school students will be selected with the input of the School Family Association and teachers," he said.
NO ALLOWANCE FOR ADVERTISING OR DISTINGUISHING ELEMENTS
Minister Tekin emphasized that there will be no special signs, prints, advertising elements, or distinguishing details on the uniforms. Stating that school administrations will only define the uniforms, Tekin said, "For example, definitions will be made such as gray t-shirt, navy blue skirt, or brown pants. This visual will also be shared with parents on the school's website," he stated.
WILL NOT BE CHANGED FOR 4 YEARS
To prevent financial strain on parents, Tekin expressed that the determined school uniforms cannot be changed before 4 academic years have passed, saying, "The uniform determined for a student starting primary school will be valid until secondary school. This way, both stability will be ensured and the financial burden on parents will not increase," he said.
"IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM, COME TO US" MESSAGE
Tekin reminded that parents are prohibited from being directed to specific stores, stating, "Parents experiencing difficulties in this regard can first apply to the district or provincial national education directorates, and if not resolved, directly to the Ministry. Every complaint will be evaluated meticulously, and necessary sanctions will be applied," he stated.
