Uniform Swaps at Your Child’s School
Most Schools do a uniform swap towards the end of the year, in which they will ask parents to bring in any good quality, unwanted uniform so that other parents can pick it up.
There’s also always loads of unclaimed lost property put out as well, so it’s worth checking to see if any items of your children are there that may still be of use.
If your school doesn’t participate in this, perhaps you could bring it up with the head teacher as it’s a great way to stop perfectly good uniform from going to landfill.

The best time of year to purchase school uniform is in July, during the 6 weeks School summer holidays. This is when Tesco, Asda & M&S offer 20 – 25% off ALL their uniform range and Aldi Launches its incredible £5 full uniform bundle.
