GSP's 'Back to School' guide

Posted on August 30, 2019

It’s that time of year again — we all know that the back to school shop can be stressful and expensive, but it doesn’t have to be!

 

Using our handy guide, you can get all your back to school essentials on a budget.

 

What’s more, it’s all available at Greenwich ShoppingPark — offering a stress-free shopping experience with stores to suit everyone’s taste and budget. Plus, there’s three hours free parking available on-site.



1. A high-quality school uniform

 

Matalan has delivered once again with its Super School Shop. Prices start as low as £2.50 — plus all clothing is machine washable and tumble dry safe, making it quick and easy to get the uniform washed and dried in no time.

 

We found the following for girls and boys:

Luckily, Matalan comes to the rescue again with a great range of smart school shoes, starting from just £5. Here are our favourites:
