School skirts with pockets

Am I missing something here? Nowhere, I mean nowhere, can I find traditional grey school skirts with pockets. Proper ones, in the seam, on the sides, not decorative ones at the front.

Morrisons had them last year but I've been in this year and they're the same as everywhere else. Pocketless!

@ViaRia01 It’s the latest fad. You see it all the time on the style threads. Plus there are even bridal gowns with pockets! It’s totally silly.

Out of interest, why would a child need pockets? I can’t think of anything, except maybe a tissue, that a child would need constant access to.

Hey! I’m just wondering if you’ve managed to find any skirts with pockets at all? I’m on the same mission!
