Thoughts on the SNP’s proposed P1 school bag scheme

[FunnyOrca]

What do you think about the SNP’s P1 bag idea?

I think the prototypes look ugly! My nephew down south got a school branded one from his local primary. It’s satchel style and looks smart. It’s not huge, fits his homework jotter, reading folder and water bottle.

I also think it’s pretty pointless! I’d rather have funded childcare from 9 months or strategies for teacher retention! 😭

Maybe ScotGov should offer an adult box when you turn 18. Big enough to keep stuff in when you move, big enough to sleep in and when you're deid....

They are proposing giving them £200 instead. So they can buy their own choice if box or bag or a few weeks unsubsidised food.

Thanks that made me laugh out loud.
