Emanoel says: “It is a really good jumper, it’s soft and warm.”
His mum Raquel says: “This jumper is lovely. With a fleece lining, it will see him through winter. These trousers are pretty good. they are thick with an adjustable waist so they will last as he grows.”
Anaya says: “This cardigan isn’t as soft as some of the other ones but it’s OK. The polo top is nice too.”
Dad Nas says: “Nice and simple, not too frilly. The skirt is adjustable on this one too, which is great.”

Dad Nas says: “The patterns and the details on this uniform are nice – the cardigan’s flower buttons and the embroidered detail on the collar.
“The belt loops on the trousers are even in the shape of bows.”

George at Asda
5
- Cardigan, £10 set of two; shirt, £6, set of two; pinafore dress, £12 set of two, George at Asda
- Shirt, £6 set of two; trousers, £7, both George at Asda
CONVENIENCE is at the heart of the back- to-school range with its “Easy On Easy Wear” clothing.
It is designed to help kids get dressed by themselves – so minimal buttons and no faffy fastenings.
Emanoel says: “These trousers are comfy to move around in and I like the shirt colour.”
Mum Raquel says: “The shirt feels a bit synthetic and the trousers are pull-on. The button and fly are fake, so if your child has moved on to buttons, it feels like a step backwards.”
Anaya says: “I love the colour of the cardigan and the star on the dress.”
Early bird discounts
- M&S 20% off started July 2
- Tesco 25% off from July 23
- Sainsbury’s 25% off began June 19
Dad Nas says: “This was all easy to put on. You just pull the pinafore over your head so there’s no searching around for zips.
“The cardigan is a good fit for Anaya.”
Morrisons
5
- Shirt, £7 set of two; trousers, £6 set of two, both Nutmeg at Morrisons
- Polo shirt, £4.95 set of three; skirt, £5, both Nutmeg at Morrisons
THE Morrisons Nutmeg range represents brilliant value for money.
It has a three-pack of polo shirts for £4.95 – £1.65 each – and skirts for £5.
Unlike some other brands, prices do not increase when you buy for older kids and bigger sizes.
Emanoel says: “I like this set, it’s cool and like my own school uniform.”
Mum Raquel says: “I’m not so keen on the trousers’ narrow ankles as they don’t really go over the shoe. But the waist has a silver hook and eye, which is easier than a button.”

Anaya says: “I like this skirt, it’s comfy.”
Dad Nas says: “This skirt is good, it has hidden pockets and easy side fastenings to make it bigger or smaller, so it would last her a long time.”
