Rules: national guidelines

The draft National Guidelines on School Uniforms, issued under the South African Schools Act, ask for uniforms that are affordable and sensitive to age and gender. A consumer alert also says schools should not compel parents to buy uniforms, so check whether your school's items can be bought elsewhere.

Sizes, fabric and colour

Measure height and waist, and check the school's size chart, since sizes differ between shops. Choose fabric that copes with the heat for summer (December to February), and keep jerseys and blazers for winter (June to August). Ask for a size chart, and for returns if the fit is wrong.

Season and buying

Most families need a summer and a winter set, so budget for both. Ask whether the school needs a specific badge or colour, because plain grey and navy items are the most common in the listings. Prices vary by item: a girls' panelled skirt costs about R 163 and a grey sleeveless jersey about R 120.

What to put in your request

Give the item, your child's height or age, the size, the school's name or requirements, whether you want new or used, your budget and the city for delivery. A photo of the school's list helps sellers match the right items.
