MIKE HEDGES AM URGES PARENTS TO CHECK IF THEY ARE ELIGIBLE FOR HELP WITH THE COSTS OF SCHOOL UNIFORMS.

Mike Hedges said….’ At the start of a new term there are all sorts of extra costs for parents and some parents might be eligible for help in the costs of uniforms and some types of equipment. I would urge parents to check to see if they are eligible. Please contact Swansea Council Education Dept.’
