Hi Surreymum,
The last lot of forms etc I got from the school mentioned they would write again in May with lots of information.
I assume that the uniform, induction days etc etc will be included in that information.
I know others have heard from their respective schools, so I guess if we don't hear in the next week or so it would be a little odd.
Will let you know.

They haven't asked yet! When my eldest went there 3 years ago, they asked us at the parents evening in the summer. I think they asked us for a direct debit for £30 a month, but made it clear that this was a suggested figure and would be grateful for whatever they got.
From what I have heard Wilsons are far more aggressive and persistent about money.
I have to say that I pay very happily. I would have paid for independent school if the boys hadn't passed in order to secure the education I want them to have (painful though it would have been) and I see the grammar school doing on a shoestring what the independent schools do easily. I also would have no worries about not paying this amount if I thought I couldn't afford it.
Clearly there are very strong views out there about these contributions. The fact is these schools do not have adequate resources to do everything. I feel I am in a position to support them and do so willingly.

Thank you very much for telling me this.
100% sure i am going to pay whatever asked! Some of the parents in another thread seem to take advantage of the word "VOLUNTARY" without shame . Anyway, that's my opinion.
My son didn't make it at Sutton Boy. However, the boys there are so charming and sociable. Very very impressive indeed! Hope your sons enjoy their stay there.
