Core Conflict: Connectivity & Resource Access \leftrightarrow Distraction & Mental Health Risk.

Key Issues: Time management, academic focus, mental health, and the formation of a sustainable digital identity.

Slide 3:

 Major Positive Impacts

Social Media as an Asset:

 * Learning & Collaboration: Facilitates peer support, group project organization, and access to expert tutorials and global academic content.

 * Networking & Advocacy: Crucial for career networking, staying informed on current events, and engaging in social activism.

 * Emotional Support: Provides immediate community connection for students living away from home or seeking specialized support groups.

Slide 4: 

Major Negative Impacts

The Detriments to Well-being:

 * Academic Decline: Frequent notifications lead to procrastination and significantly reduce deep, focused study time.

 * Mental Health Strain: Fuels anxiety, depression, and FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) due to constant social comparison and exposure to curated, unrealistic lives.

 * Sleep Disruption: Late-night use and blue light exposure severely impact sleep quality, reducing cognitive function.

 * Privacy Risks: Increased vulnerability to cyberbullying and permanent damage to one's digital footprint.

Slide 5:

The Numbers Don't Lie:

 * Usage: A majority of students spend over 3 hours daily on social platforms.

   Reality Check: The quality of engagement (passive scrolling vs. active learning) is the primary determinant of impact.

Final Takeaway: The impact is not the medium itself, but the user's intentionality and control.

Strategic Recommendations:

Introduction: What Are We Discussing?

Background:

 * Traditional school uniforms often have separate options for "boys" (trousers, shirts) and "girls" (skirts, blouses).

* All students can choose from the same options.

* Example: All students can wear trousers, shorts, or a skirt if they wish.

Slide 4 : 

Evidence & Examples

What We See & Hear:

 * Student Voices: Many students, especially LGBTQ+ youth, report feeling more comfortable and accepted with gender-neutral options.

 * School Examples: Many schools globally (e.g., in the UK, Australia, and some in the US) have successfully adopted gender-neutral uniform policies.

 * Research: Studies suggest that inclusive policies can improve student well-being and reduce bullying.

 * Practicality: Trousers or shorts can be more practical for active play and all-weather conditions for all students.

Slide 5: 

Final Recommendation (Decision)
