Long-time lurker, occasional poster with a brand new username (which I am quite proud of, thank you very much!)wanting to pick your brains if that's OK.
Do secondary schools still supply pupils with exercise books and course books, or is it now up to the families to pay for them?
In my school (state comprehensive, 1986 to 1990) the only things we had to buy were our pencil case and whatever we wanted in it. It wasn't until I got to sixth-form that I needed to buy folders and paper.
What's the situation nowadays? And if you do have to pay, what's the average annual cost?
Thanks.
