Blazer size and jumper size

Hi,
DD starting secondary school in September. I know it's a long way off but just planning ahead as spreading out the cost for new uniform. She is 25" around the chest, so was thinking about getting the 28" size blazer. Then it occurred to me that she would be wearing a jumper underneath in the winter. Do I buy the same size for both garments or go up a size for the blazer. Thinking it might be tight with a jumper on.

Any advice on buying secondary uniform! :)

Honestly, I would get more than 1 skirt / trousers - pretty rank to be wearing the same trousers all week when active, same with a skirt.

Unless of course they are being washed, dried and ironed mid week.

I agree & it’s not just being active. Most DD will have started/will start their periods around the early part of secondary school. I can’t speak for all DC (obviously!) but DD uses sanitary towels and occasionally there will be leakage.
