An example of a uniform would be requiring [[button-down shirt]]s, [[Pants|trousers]] for boys and [[blouse]]s, [[pleat]]ed [[skirt]]s for girls, with both wearing [[blazer]]s. A uniform can even be as simple as requiring collared shirts, or restricting colour choices and limiting items students are allowed to wear.

Although often used interchangeably, there is an important difference between [[dress codes]] and school uniforms: according to scholars such as Nathan Joseph, clothing can only be considered a uniform when it "(a) serves as a group emblem, (b) certifies an institution's legitimacy by revealing individual's relative positions and (c) suppresses individuality."<ref>{{cite book|last1=Joseph|first1=Nathan|title=Uniforms and nonuniforms : communication through clothing|date=1986|publisher=Greenwood Press|location=New York|isbn=0313251959}}</ref>
Conversely, a [[dress code]] is much less restrictive, and focuses "on promoting modesty and discouraging anti-social fashion statements", according to Marian Wilde.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Wilde|first1=Marian|title=Do Uniforms Make Schools Better|url=http://www.greatschools.org/find-a-school/defining-your-ideal/121-school-uniforms.gs?page=2|website=GreatSchools.net}}</ref> Examples of a dress code would be not allowing ripped clothing, no logos or limiting the amount of skin that can be shown.
School uniforms are clothes that are usually used for school, each level of school has a different uniform. Each educational unit has its own distinctive school uniform.
