DS1 is due to start school in September. I just know he is not going to want to wear a uniform. Any tips?

He's excited about starting school.
But after several failed attempts to get him to wear a jumper with his nursery logo on it, I decided to let him be.
Now with school, it's non-negotiable.

I mentioned it to him over dinner the other day in terms of what colour he will wear for school. He gave me one of these look , and said he didn't need to wear it.

Would it be ridiculous to get him it early and throw it in his dressing up box in the hope he'll get used to wearing it?

Take him with you when you go to buy it. That worked a treat for ds as it made him think he had chosen it. Ds is very opinionated and incredibly stubborn but getting him to try on his uniform in the shop seemed to make the difference.

Once at school ds developed a real pride in his uniform and wanting to look smart (at least on the way to school).
