Fans of the brand’s White Unisex Slim Fit Polo Top 2 Pack, which costs £3 said, “Another really good fit.
“It’s great to finally see uniforms for those who are more slim built”.
Another parent added: “I bought these a few weeks ago, the fit is great and they wash really well, I will definitely buy again.”
Another of Tu’s bestsellers is the Black Zip-Through Hoodie for £4, it’s been awarded 4.8 stars online and features over 700 positive comments.
One shopper shared, “I buy this every year for my son’s PE classes at school and they last the whole year with no problems!”
Another happy reviewer added, “I bought this for PE in the winter months.
“The hoodie is soft on the inside and is a true-to-size fit. We buy it every year.”
Another handy feature both parents and children love about the range is that all Tu uniform items have touch-and-close fasteners, replacing traditional buttons to support independent dressing.
Parents can also have full peace of mind when stocking up as Tu Clothing also offers a 150-day guarantee for returns or exchanges with proof of purchase.
IF you can't get targeted help from your council, you might have some other options available to you.
In some areas, you can talk directly to your school, which might be able to offer you clothing.
Or, you might be able to get cheap garments from low-budget shops or charity stores.
Some charities offer help to families in need too.
But bear in mind charities often have a limited amount of money to give and usually have specific criteria which must be met in order to get a grant.
Charity Turn2Us has a free grants search tool on its website which you can use to find out what help is available to you.
Meanwhile, you can always try approaching your nearest Citizens’ Advice branch.
