"Dressing is an important part of human existence. It is how you p
resent yourself. The image you project with your dress has much to say about you. Dressing reflects you, and that reflection will determine how you will be addressed. No wonder the saying "Dress how you want to be addressed." Everyone wants to be properly addressed, but most times the look says the opposite
The manner and how a
teacher dresses have much to say about the teacher and profession. By dressing
appropriately, a teacher creates and reflects a positive, welcoming, and
professional image that sets him/her as a role model for the learners.
Most schools have a dress policy that must be respected. This policy may involve a color code to distinguish staff members from visitors. This should be respected. Also, the dressing should respect the school activity days such as sports day and culture day. In most Nigerian schools, teachers are expected to look sporty on sports days and traditional on culture and national day.
You do not need to buy expensive materials to look great. You just need to be smart in your choices and combinations. Footwear must allow quick movement in case of emergency.
- Dress in a way that will portray
Do not be weary in your look. Appear ready for the job.
- Dress in a way that will promote
and not in a way that will draw the attention of the learners away from the main thing. Remember, the focus should be on learning, not on you.
What to avoid in teacher
dressing:
- Dressing should not be
— unnecessarily colourful and shiny. Be modest and professional..
- Dressing should not be
. Avoid dressing in a way that can put learners, colleagues, and people off. The dress should not be revealing. Remember, teachers are role models — our learners are watching."
