Hi, I just wondered if anyone out there organised these for their Year 6s, and how they went about it?
I know this sounds mad, but our school is temperamental on what they will allow, and what they won't, so I need to have my persuasive arguments ready.
Their usual answer to anything new is 'no', so I am trying to pre-empt them. I think there might be a safe guarding issue with listing children's names on the back of the hoodies? How did you get around that? Would I need to send out a consent form to all parents? Even if they don't buy one, their child's name would be listed...
This is not funded by our PTA - parents will have to pay for it (about £13) - which school will probably dislike because it is exclusive rather than inclusive. I get that, but I can't sub it myself, so this is the reality of the situation. I am going to counter argue that every pupil has a school photo taken, and designs a christmas card, but not every parents buys them.
Any tips/ legal arguments gratefully received. Now back to my proposal to the Head...
