Azerbaijan, Baku, Dec. 2 / Trend M.Aliyev /
Parents offered to establish and implement single school uniforms to protect children from the negative manifestations, Baku Education Department Head Naila Rzaguliyeva said in an interview with the official website of the "New Azerbaijan Party" over the question of wearing hijab by schoolgirls.
Educational institutions approve and are engaged in design of proposals put forward by parents, she said.
"Although we demanded 13-14 students to come to school in uniform, they did not do and come in clothes of different styles," Rzaguliyeva said.
The issue of school uniforms was one of the main debated questions at the numerous meetings of the parent-teacher associations.
"Not all people have equal opportunities. This difference in opportunities is reflected in school clothes. School children feel disadvantage and despond," she added.
A single school uniform has been applied in Azerbaijan from 2010.
