My sons primary school this term has decided to adopt a school uniform. Previously he had always worn blue jogging bottoms, white t-shirt and a blue sweatshirt. He can still wear these items, but the school insist they have the schools logo on them.
This means, I can either buy the tops/trousers from the school uniform supplier, or send clothes brought from elsewhere into school to get the logo put on (at the cost of £3 an item) - we're not allowed to sow the logo on ourselves!
Doesn't this go againt the OFT recommendations which can out recently. Seems a bit of a con money wise.
I think it is. I called our local education authority about it when my daughter was starting school. In primary school they cannot enforce a uniform because poorer parents would not be able to afford it. You get a grant for secondary school uniforms, but not one for primary school because it isn't enforceable.
They are cheeky trying to extort money from you in this way! Call up your local LEA and talk to them about it.

My daughter is about to start school after the summer break. Her school or the local school uniform supplier do not longer supply the school badge. Where can I buy one or get one made?
Ask the school! Maybe it is no longer part of the uniform.

School uniforms damaged in floods | Gladstone News | Local News in ...
Has heard Gladstone State High School is having issues supplying uniforms for new students because of Brisbane floods affecting supplies.
However, Everything Uniforms owner Lisa McKeough said they had plenty of supplies for other schools in the region.
Gladstone High School uniforms are sold through the school, as are Chanel College and other catholic schools.
Central Queensland Regional Director Wayne Butler said some Gladstone State High School uniforms were damaged in Brisbane due to flooding.
“The extent of the damage is yet to be confirmed by the supplier,” he said.
“If the damage is substantial and stock can not be salvaged, it is unlikely new Gladstone State High School shirts will be available for the start of school.
“In this case, students who do not have Gladstone State High School shirts can wear alternate shirts to school in plain white or yellow. This modification to the uniform will remain in place until sufficient stock is available to students.
