Училищните униформи между принадлежността и себеизразяването
School Uniforms between Belonging and Self-Expression

Summary/Abstract: This article explores the topic of school uniforms, situating the issue within the Bulgarian educational context, particularly in relation to the structure of the national education system and the Law on School and Preschool Education. Central to the study is the theoretical question of individuality and the extent to which wearing a school uniform affects students’ ability to express themselves. We seek to examine how the standardization of attire within the school setting intersects with students’ need for belonging and contributes to the formation of a „sense of continuity.“ The theoretical framework is supported by a survey conducted among students, with questions designed to reflect the research objectives. The survey emphasizes the concept of continuity as expressed through the shared uniform, which carries the emblematic features of the respective educational institution.
