Point England School’s Year 7 and 8 Jackets. When year 6 turn year 7 they change from sweat shirts to jackets

The cost of the jackets is 55.00 dollars and 98% of the year 7 and 8 wear them.It is just one dollar cheaper than the senior coulottes which is 56.00 and the coulottes are black.

The reason the seniors have the jackets is that it makes them feel older and more mature. The seniors are growing so they need a change in uniform to go with how they grow. This is to separate the juniors from the seniors. The seniors wouldn't want to wear the same thing as the 5 year olds they would want something that shows that they are the seniors.

It was picked two to three years by the Point England school prefects at that time. We have interviewed Mrs Flavell the office administrator and this is what she said “We have the different option its just so you can distinguish the senior children from everyone else.” Mrs Flavell said that they had two or three people come in with samples and they showed the children and mostly the prefects and then one style was chosen and got the Point England logo on it.
