Back to School ready

July 2024

We make the shopping process as smooth as possible to make sure you can get all your back-to-school supplies in Glasgow.

School Uniform

First on the list is that all-important school uniform. If your kids have outgrown everything in the last year, don’t worry – The Forge has a number of options for new school uniforms. Head to Asda for polo shirts in nearly every colour, so no matter your school colours you can stock up from just £3. White shirts, school sweatshirts, trousers, skirts and gingham dresses are all available so your child will have a school wardrobe suitable for every season. Older kids might like some stylish options from Quiz, including a cosy cardigan or a black wrap skirt.

When it comes to classic school shoes, you’ll be spoilt for choice at Asda and Shoe Zone. From casual plimsolls to patent loafers and formal boys’ shoes, no matter your child’s style or school rules, they’ll be set for the year.

 

School Essentials

If you’re looking for a new schoolbag, why not try Primark? With cute character bags for the little ones and everyday bags for the older kids, get ready for the new school year with affordable kit that won’t break the bank.

Asda has a huge range of water bottles and lunch boxes, so you can keep that packed lunch cool all day. Don’t forget pens, pencils, and notebooks too – Poundland is the place to stock up so you can keep the pencil cases full all year round.

JD Sports is the place to look for PE kit essentials this year. Pick up trainers, shorts, leggings, and t-shirts along with equipment for any sports the kids will take part in this year. Make after school activities a breeze with a convenient sports bag, or a sturdy backpack to fit all the important pieces of work with ease.
