DD's school sent a letter out on Friday (dated 13th Feb and posted on the school website so I know it's not been festering in her bag for weeks) stating that when they return to school following the half term holiday all students will be expected to wear ties.
School are kindly providing 1 tie each, which is brilliant and will be handing them out on Monday morning
However, regulation school uniform shirts have always been the revere necked ones (like these which can't be worn with a tie.
Is there supposed to be a reasonable notice period regarding uniform changes? It's an academy (who actually promised when they took over there'd be no more changes to uniform ) if that makes a difference.
In the long run, I'm actually happy with the change in shirts, I live in the arse end of nowhere so have to order the revere neck ones, whereas I can get the normal collared ones fairly cheaply in Matalan/Sainsbury's, but I only bought her a whole load of new shirts at Christmas so not overly happy at having to buy another load so soon
