School uniforms can be pricey – new research this year showed that school clothing can often cost anywhere from £100 to £400 upwards. 

Here, Mad About The Money mum blogger Maddy Alexander-Grout reveals the best deals available on school uniforms.

George at Asda currently has 10 percent off on all school uniforms until Monday 11th September online.

If you only want to shop in store you need to go to the Asda app and spend a minimum of £10 before Sunday 3rd September in order to qualify for the discount. 

Maddy says: “George at Asda is great value, with items starting from as little as £2.70 for polo shirts, its prices increase with age, so be careful when you first look at the item as it might be more expensive depending on what size you need.”

You can get your hands on a 3x pack of white polo shirts for £4 and a 2x pack of grey trousers for £8. 

F&F no longer sells on its own website, so this offer is in store only. 

Maddy says: “A three for two deal is a great way to bag an extra bargain on uniform and with prices starting from as little as £4 you can’t go wrong.”

LIDL

Lidl is known for its value for money when it comes to its school uniforms. 

It is currently offering a bundle for £5, you can get a sweatshirt, two polo shirts, a skirt or trousers all included. 

Size does not matter as the price does not waiver and the supermarket stocks sizes from ages 4-12. 

The retailer is also donating 50p to NSPCC’s Childline for sales on selected uniform items. 

Maddy says: “This deal started in July and is only on until stocks last so head down to your nearest store to check if they have what you need available.” 

ALDI

Similarly to Lidl it is also offering a £5 school uniform deal. 

For just £5, you can get your hands on a sweatshirt, two polo shirts, a skirt or trousers. 

You cannot look for this deal online so head to your local store to check for the uniform which is located in the supermarkets ‘special buys’ section. 

Maddy says: “Head down to your nearest Aldi now for one of the cheapest deals around, but hurry as although Aldi does replenish its special buys it’s only available until stocks last.”
