Recommendations for a teachers bag- I'm sick of my Tesco bag!

Not overly fussed on the Cath Kidston bags that half the staff room have and completely fed up with my tesco jute bag!

Needs to be fairly big to carry a set of books/lunch/purse etc.

Any ideas?

How about a Seasalt jute bag? Big and some lovely designs on their website. I've just ordered myself another one (also a teacher)!

Sea salt
Cheap and cheerful

I realize the idiots haven't put sizes. You want a shopper, the cute jute (idiotic name) are lunch box/A5 notebook and pen size. Perfect for PTA meetings when you don't mind folding the minutes in half, but not what you want.

[http://www.oliverbonas.com/accessories/bags/bag_lana_tote_black_grey.htm this bag]] fits a surprising amount of stuff in it yet retains a compact look on the outside - super comfy too

oopsy sorry this is the bag

I use a sea salt one. It fits my iPad, my planner, my purse and and worksheets or textbooks. I keep a spare one to carry home sets of books. One tends to last a full school year.

I use something like this when I cycle- fits a lot more than you'd think and has a reflective bit

If you go to foyles you might get given a bag - I got ''the day the crayons quit'' large shoulder bag given to me the other day

I have a red satchel that I bought this year for my teaching stuff. Fits in my big thing planner, plus files, etc.

I treat myself to an Iron Fist bag most years.

They're roomy, strong, practical & amuse Year 9 no end...
