Goodness me!!  Do you not get a clothing grant?  I think I heard of them when I was little it was £50 per child.  How old are they?

I know you said they have the logo on it etc, but do they have to have the logo on the shirt??

They have to have the logo on all school tops including P.E, they do look smart but it cost a fortune every year now as there is 2 of them there, not eliagable for grants, wouldn't do seconds either as the uniform is black and over the year it fades quite badly, no matter how carefully you wash it.

Uniforms are really expensive.  We had to get Rachels last September.

Its also really hard to know what to get.  If you DIDNT have the uniform with the school logo on it at my school you got picked on where as the school down the road if you DID have the uniform with the school logo on you got picked on.

Kids are just mean to other kids.

That's terrible. Up here none of the schools bother if you wear the uniform or not. The sweatshirts are sold but none of the kids wear them.
