AIBU?
DD is at secondary school, in year 9. The school have always been fairly strict about uniform, but the official jumpers and ties, which are compulsory, have been available from a local supplier. Pricey but at least available locally.
As of September there will be a new uniform; blazers, new ties, new PE kit, shirts with house colours on the collar. Which in itself is ridiculous and will be loads of expense. And to add insult to injury the supplier for the items is in a town 35 miles away and they don't do online ordering or mail order in any capacity, you have to travel to the shop to buy the items.
A few people have complained to the school and they have basically been told it's tough titties, that's the new uniform, that's the supplier, get over it.

To think that it is ridiculous for a school to use a uniform supplier in a town 35 miles away?
