As far as I know the school grants no longer exist, I'm a single mum, working part time, and have had to find the money for both my lads uniforms each year.

You can still have an affordable, easy care uniform that looks smart, and makes children feel proud to put it on.

MY daughter goes to rhyddings and I have to say that it is a good school, my daughter as come on leaps and bounds, But I must agree that the uniform is of poor quality, thus looking crap!

and half the kids need disipline, thank god my daughter is not one of them!

blame the headteacher not doing his job right, Miss Moore would not have tolerated half the stuff most of these kids do or wear!!

we have never had uniform grants up here.we have a choice of places to buy a uniform and the cheapest is at asda,as for the uniform with the school logo it has to be bought from the school ,a jumper costs £10.50 (primary school),and last yr i bought 3 thinking that they were good quality well they are not and im shocked at the price for shabby quality,i will be sticking to asda from now on

I'm sure there are loads of great kids at the school, and it's getting good results.

Perhaps the nasty, foul mouthed ones I see, wait especially for me to go to the shop.
