There’s a school uniform price war being fought between supermarkets and stores. So if you're happy to guesstimate how much little Billy or Claire will grow over the summer, here's the low down on the cheapest kit available.
Do report any other bargain uniforms you spot, and chat about the quality of these items in the Cheap Uniform Deals discussion in the forum.
We'll update this deals note again closer to the new school year in September.
Ongoing price
Asda has an ongoing promotion to get a uniform for £7 as part of its George schoolwear range. The promotion includes:
For boys:
- 2-pack of shirts/polos
- one jumper
- one pair of trousers
- 2-pack of shirts/polos
- one jumper
- one skirt or pair of trousers
Sizes are available at this flat price for 3 to 15 year-olds. You can buy the uniform from Asda online* or at your nearest Asda with a George clothing department.
Delivery's £2.95 or collect in store for free.
In store
At Sainsbury's it's possible to pick up a whole boy's or girl's school uniform for £6. The clothes are part of its TU range so they're available all year round, yet these prices are only for ages up to 5 years.
What do you get?
For boys, a sweatshirt (£2), a 2-pack of polo shirts (£2) and a pack of trousers (£2).
For girls you can get a sweatshirt (£2), a 2-pack of polo shirts (£2) and a skirt (£2).
The prices are the same for boys and girls. Prices go up for older children: for 6-9 year olds the uniform's £11.50 and for 10-12 year olds it's £15.
How to get the kit
Only selected stores sell clothing so use the location function to find your nearest Sainsbury's selling kids' wear. The Tu clothing range isn't available online.
Online and in stores
Get 3 girls' or boys' shirts for £3 at BHS, online and in-store. The pack includes a polo top, t-shirt and shirt for ages 3 to 10. The offer's only on shirts, but if you want to get a whole uniform the cheapest combinations are (age 3-10):
- Boys: 3 shirts (£3) + 1 jumper (£5) + 1 pair trousers (£3.50) = £11.50
- Girls: 3 shirts (£3) + 1 jumper (£5) + 1 skirt (£4) = £12
The price then goes up for the following:
- Shirts age 11-15 (£5)
- Jumpers age 6+ (£8)
- Skirt age 6 to 10 (£5), 11 to 12 (£7)
- Trousers age 11 to 13 (£7)
There's no end date for the 3 for £3 offer. You can buy the schoolwear online at Bhs* (£3.95 delivery or collect in store for free) or at your nearest Bhs.
