Welsh Government School Uniform Update
Revised guidance for governing bodies on school uniform and appearance policies was published on 2 May 2023.
The new guidance states that schools should ensure that arrangements are in place so that second-hand school uniforms are available for parents and carers to acquire.
Uniform recycling and exchange schemes can vary. Here is a link to some different types of schemes schools could choose to operate.
