Outrageous: The cost of “back to school” is now more than €200 per child




Social media users have voiced their outrage at the cost of sending their children back to school after the summer holidays.

It seems that prices have only gone one way and parents are furious at the expensive bill they’re faced with towards the end of the summer.

From new uniforms, new shoes, a new bag, books, lunchbox and pencil cases, the total of sending just one child back to school is said to add up to more than €200.

Rita O’Hagan posted “it’s costing me €235 to send my son back to school, it’s absolutely outrageous the expense of it”.

What’s your thoughts on these school “fees”?
