Why are you threatening #UCU staff with pay deductions for ASOS?
UCU policy is to oppose punitive deduction for ASOS
And why are you asking staff to fill out a form when UCU members at QMUL were advised not to do this?

£165 for uniform w/ 1 skirt, 1 jumper/cardigan, sports kit, blazer & 4shirts. Most kids will need at least 1 more jumper & 1 more skirt/pants so now £197.
Underwear, socks/tights, school shoes, sports trainers, a school bag & a winter coat & you are prob c £400 for 1 child.

You simply cannot equate 68yrs ago with 2025. Nobody is staing that uniform costs are not new, but people are literally starving to be able to provide it.
