Hi all, our oldest is off to secondary school soon and I was dismayed to see how much uniforms cost, especially logoed items. I've started a petition, if you'd like to join me, sign up :)

I'd like to see a ban on unnecessary uniform changes such as between year 7-9 and 10-11. A parent could have just bought new uniform, then need to buy the same size in a different colour just because the child is in a new year at the same school. Alternatively, children are left in too small uniform because there is no point in buying uniform that they are only allowed to wear for a term.
