Modern schools are starting to understand that their school identity is a brand and is just as important as in any business. The school badge has meaning to staff, students and parents and should be considered a ‘badge of honour’. It identifies your tribe and where you belong – and let’s be honest, ‘where we go to school’ becomes a clear part of our identity for many years during and after studying.
School ‘Merch’ has several uses and advantages: we are seeing institutions printing innovative products to promote the school, fundraise, offer as prizes, or just as innovative addition to the school uniform: Think everything from printed bags in reception class to school leaver hoodies!
| 1. | Pens |  | Still number one favourite, a good quality pen is essential to every student. |
| 2. | Notebooks |  | Printed notebooks in various colours help kids come to every lesson prepared and organised. |
| 3. | Water bottles |  | We won’t preach about the importance of hydration, but a good quality portable bottle is essential today. |
| 4. | USB Sticks |  | As we embrace the digital collaborative world, saving kids work to USBs allows a seamless flow of work between classroom and home. |
| 5. | Umbrellas |  | Popular with parents on those busy wet playground pickups! |
| 6. | Tote / Jute Bags |  | From sports bags to school trips, quality additional bags are a must all through your school days to avoid the split carrier spilling out all over the bus floor! |
| 7. | Lunchboxes |  | Why not complete the set with a quality, cooling lunch box packed with healthy snacks of course! |
