A Co Tyrone primary school has been hailed for their efforts in helping to ease the cost of living crisis on families in their community.
With the cost of school uniforms and branded uniforms a hot topic at the moment, Primate Dixon says they only require pupils to buy the branded sweatshirt with the school logo. "This year we are able to provide O’Neill’s Primate Dixon half-zip sweatshirts for our P7 children. We will have a sweatshirt for every P7 child – free-of-charge. We are expecting delivery of these shortly, it may be early September, we will keep P7 parents updated."
"Early Arrivers, P1 to P7, will continue to be welcome into school from 8.15 each day – this early morning care and supervision will stay always free-of-charge." "We will be welcoming the return of school swimming programmes at Dungannon pool this year. We have booked slots for this. We will be covering all costs of our swimming programme.With the transfer test and private tuition an extra cost for families, Primate Dixon say they are also providing extra support for children who wish to avail of it free of charge.
Schools can be expensive with all the add one. Lovely to see a school thinking through how they can help and support parents.
Great ideas. I wonder how schools will pay the heating and electric bills this year
