To: School bodies.

School uniform costs are out of control.

Stop forcing parents to buy uniforms from school shops or dedicated suppliers that charge up to 4 times the amount similar uniforms cost in the supermarkets.

Why is this important?

Not everyone has the money to buy even one school uniform at the inflated price the school charges. Examples of the overpricing for example, trousers at supermarket are priced between £3-£4. School suppliers often charge £15-£18 for the same. Typically, children need at least 3 pairs of trousers and 5 shirts/blousers.
