School uniform should be free period. Education is mandatory, uniform is mandatory and education is a net benfit to the country. It should not be gated behind additional costs.
My old secondary school used to just have badge that you could sew onto your jumper and a tie you had to buy. That was it. As long as you were wearing the correct colours and dresscode they didn’t care where you got them. Same rules for the sports kit as long as they were the right colours.
There was a school store that would sell the jumpers and other kit with the badges already sewn onto them but if you wanted to do it yourself you could.
