compulsory dresses for schoolgirls is not good.
Make them longer so they can run around in them and it’d be fine.
since longer dresses get unwieldy, perhaps we could split them into two dresses, one around each leg 🤔
Studies have shown that putting babies/small children in dresses and skirts changes their behavior (babies/toddlers move less-and since people tend to put girl babies in dresses that means girl babies move less while their boy counterparts don’t get this treatment and move more). People also tend to put girls in nice clothes a lot at young ages and tell them not to get it dirty, essentially teaching girls that it’s more important to stay looking nice than it is to play or do anything else (when playing is the main way that children learn).
So what I’m saying is: put all babies and young children in clothes that are easy to move in (basically not a dress or a skirt) and don’t worry about them getting their clothes dirty. You can get other clothes but your child only gets one childhood.
It is arguably feminist to do this.

Plus not all those kids may stay girls and may hate the dresses/skirts and look back on their younger years in school with disgust because of how they were treated/forced to act
If you’re gonna make kids wear a uniform, at least make it so all kids wear gender neutral clothing but can wear a dress/skirt only if they so wish.
Like dude, if you got a girly kid, let them wear what they want. You got a tomboy, let her wear her pants. Let your daughter wear that dress she wants, let your trans daughter wear that skirt she wants, let your nonbianary kid wear what they want. And stop forcing girls to wear cute ‘feminine’ clothes just because you want them to act or look a particular way.

I can’t wait to have kids that grow up to be who they actually are. I can’t wait to treat my children as though their opinions matter.

!! I buy clothes from both sections of the store! The only thing that I do really, is pick out color schemes. 8 year olds have no idea what “those colors/ patterns clash” means. She gets to pick out her own outfits during summer. As long as its suitable for the weather kid can wear whatever tf she wants.
