    "content": "THAT, aware that, school uniform which is a variety of standardized clothing worn by students in educational institutions, creates homogeneity among students irrespective of their socio-economic status or fashion preference; further aware that, school uniforms keep students focused on education, not clothes, reducing peer pressure and bullying, enhancing school pride, unity and community spirit as they go a long way in contributing to students’ sense of belonging to their school’s population; appreciating that, in the Kenyan education system, schools across the Country, whether private or public, require that students wear school uniform in order to be allowed to attend classes; concerned that, the cost of uniforms has continued to escalate becoming prohibitively expensive for the poorest within the community with some schools demanding that parents pay uniform money to specific school accounts, a move that locks out many children whose parents cannot afford the expensive uniforms as listed by schools; now therefore, this House resolves that the Government through the Ministry of Education develops a policy on standardization and production of school uniforms in the country."
