DS needs a new coat (after losing his lovely MK one last term!) he is they type to wear a coat because he hates being cold before anyone says teenaged don't wear coats! What's in fashion at the moment? He's going into yr 8. Thanks.

Oh ok. Dd is fine as they have to wear a jumper and blazer and she wears a coat too. The school let them wear trainers to school and keep them on all day when it snowed last time. They would never usually allow this but i think were just pleased they'd not taken the day off.

I'm watching Educating Yorkshire and the girls are wearing coats!

Sorry Educating Greater Manchester not Yorkshire

I'm honestly wondering what some of these boys wear when it's minus 5 and snows in the winter...!? (Ok, it doesn't happen often in the U.K.

It does in Scotland!

The only time ds wore a jacket in y8 was snow. He wore touchscreen gloves to school and a thermal top for PE.

Now in y12 he will wear a Superdry Jacket in rain. He'd prefer a North Face one but limited £££
