Research has revealed that branded school uniforms in the UK are significantly more expensive than comparable items sold in supermarkets and high-street stores.
Despite government guidelines encouraging schools to minimize the use of branded clothing, parents are still facing higher costs for school uniforms with official logos.
This issue has sparked debate, with some advocating for stricter limitations on branded items to reduce financial strain on families.
The schoolwear industry, however, argues that further restrictions would be counterproductive and could lead to lower-quality uniforms.
