## Resource

Schools across the nation are set to overhaul uniform rules starting September, limiting branded items to just three per outfit — a move designed to ease the financial burden on families and prioritize kids’ wellbeing. Alongside this, the government is expanding free school meals and launching over 2,000 new breakfast clubs to support struggling households. And just last Monday, a nationwide ban on mobile phones during school hours went into effect, aiming to create a distraction-free learning environment for students.
