The polo shirts tend to be more comfortable ,easier to wash and get rid of 100 creative ways to wear a tie so the kids tend to actually look smarter.

What aren't you sure about ?

Odds are it won't be till the next academic year anyway.

The school have already stated that students can choose to wear the new uniform after October half term but it won't be compulsory until next September

I'm not sure what the question is. Blazer and tie or Sweatshirt and Tshirt are both normal school uniform combos.

The new uniform will probably be cheaper than the old one, just a shame that you'll have had to fork out twice within a relatively short space of time.

That said, depending on how quickly he grows, you might have had to buy new for next year anyway.
