There are very different schools.

Students are allowed to wear makeup and clothes to school.

Female students can wear makeup and lipstick to school, and every "happy Friday", students can wear different styles of clothes. These differences have made students at Tay Thanh High School (Tan Phu District, Ho Chi Minh City) excited.

Sharing with Thanh Nien reporter, a group of students from class 10C21 of Tay Thanh High School excitedly said: "We like it very much. When we put on makeup, we feel more beautiful. Besides, we can wear clothes according to our preferences, proudly express our style, and express our own beauty."

At Tay Thanh High School (HCMC), female students are allowed to wear makeup and students are allowed to wear casual clothes on Fridays.

Similarly, in Can Gio District, Thanh An Secondary and High School encourages female students to wear light makeup when coming to school. At Au Lac Secondary School (Tan Binh District), in the morning, students still wear uniforms, but in the afternoon, the whole school is bustling with colorful T-shirts in blue, red, purple, yellow, etc.

Ms. Bui Thi Minh Tam, Principal of Au Lac Secondary School (Tan Binh District), said that the school organizes 2 sessions/day, so first, at meal and boarding time, if the students change their white shirts to T-shirts, depending on their preferences, they will be more comfortable.

Why ban students from beautifying?

Referring to the idea of ​​creating differences for students, Mr. Nguyen Quang Dat, Principal of Tay Thanh High School, shared: "Starting from the thought, every day students have to follow the rules of ao dai, shirt uniform, skirt and trousers. So when will they be able to express their ego and personality?".

However, according to Mr. Dat, at first when deciding to create a "Happy Friday" for students, the school board also encountered difficulties. Some teachers objected, fearing that the school would be "sloppy" and that there would be discrimination among students. However, the school was determined, organizing and exploring at the same time, seeing that the students happily and enthusiastically responded, they gradually convinced the "difficult" teachers.

"Why is it forbidden for female students to use lipstick? Everyone has the right to be beautiful, it is a way to respect themselves and society. The school only "whispers" to homeroom teachers or youth assistants, teachers who are close to female students, to advise them to choose lipstick colors that are appropriate for their age, reputable products so as not to affect their health," said the Principal of Tay Thanh High School.

Mr. Dat added that students who wish to wear western clothes instead of ao dai only need to inform their homeroom teacher or supervisor about their wishes. The school will respect them and will absolutely not force them.

"There is no concept of deducting points or competing for not wearing uniforms. That is respect for students. Students need to be respected from their gender to their personal views. If their actions and thoughts do not violate ethics or the law, we should not prohibit them," Mr. Nguyen Quang Dat emphasized.

Mr. Nguyen Quang Dat shared that if there are rules, students must comply, but there still needs to be open content in necessary and reasonable situations. "Middle school and high school students are at the age of expression, so they need to be respected and guided, not harshly prohibited."

At Au Lac Secondary School (Tan Binh District, Ho Chi Minh City), in the morning, students still wear uniforms, but in the afternoon, they are allowed to wear colorful T-shirts.

SCHOOL PROVIDERS

Change from traditional thinking to 4.0

Regarding this, Master Mai My Hanh, Deputy Head of the Psychology Department, Ho Chi Minh City University of Education, expressed her opinion: "Current school regulations should be "open" to suit the psychological characteristics of students". She gave an example of many international schools, students can dye their hair and paint their nails, but they are still very well-behaved, bowing to greet guests, still saying yes, no, thank you... Sometimes the outward appearance cannot reflect the inner nature.

Psychologist analyzed: "In adolescence, many children feel self-conscious about their appearance. However, just a light layer of pink lipstick on their lips will make them much more confident, or just a slightly curled hair can make them feel very pretty. And from there, they will naturally speak up and get along with their friends."

From there, Ms. My Hanh believes that managers in each educational institution must change their thinking, from traditional to 4.0 thinking. Only when they change their thinking towards positive education, positive discipline... can they truly have happy schools and happy students.
