second hand uniform
The majority of the schools uniform is generic black clothing therefore this can be purchased second from local charity shops and second hand websites (Ebay, Vinted, etc) at a cheaper cost than new.
As the only branded uniform tie is the school tie. If parents / carers are struggling with the purchase of this, they can come and speak with their child's Head of Year to look if support is available or if second hand ties are available at the school.
