Mandatory uniforms aim to discourage public school attendance
The article addresses the decision of a public secondary school in North Metn, Lebanon, which requires male students to wear a uniform costing $70, by contracting with a specific manufacturer for exclusive clothing purchases. This decision comes amid the severe economic crisis the country is experiencing. Notably, the cost of the uniform is not included in the school's official budget, raising suspicions about the source of profits generated from the clothing sales. The report emphasizes that the ministry issued a directive aimed at organizing the school uniform and alleviating financial burdens on families. However, the implementation in some schools, such as this one, contradicts the principles that were agreed upon and reveals corruption and monopolization within the school clothing market. This situation reflects the deterioration of the educational situation in Lebanon and its negative impact on students' participation in education.
