Provide free school uniform
Uniform is expensive and parents shouldn’t waste their money on something that their child is forced to wear considering school is compulsory.
My mother has spent hundreds on school uniform which could have been spent on more important things.
The average amount a parent spends on uniform per child in a secondary school is £316 (https://www.teachingtimes.com/news/school-uniform-costs.htm)
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
It's up to schools to choose whether to have a uniform. If you're concerned about the cost of uniform at your own school, you could raise this with the school's senior management or governing body.
If you'd like school uniforms to be abolished, you could sign this petition:

If you'd like it to be illegal for schools to have compulsory logo trousers, skirts or shirts (which can make uniforms more expensive), you could sign this petition:
