I have been blown away by the advice and service of the team at Brenda's, particularly Mandy. I…read morephoned literally two days ago as my son is starting a secondary school. I like most working parents are very limited on time and so we weren't able to visit the store in person, so we choose to do an online order for home delivery. I explained we are going away and I was worried the uniform would arrive whilst we were away on holiday, miss delivery and not be ready for starting his first day (we arrive home the day before term starts!) I was advised the trousers were showing as low stock, but Mandy did everything possible to ensure our order (in full) 20 items arrived promptly. IT ALL ARRIVED TODAY - less than 2 days from ordering. Everything is perfect despite not trying a single item on. I wanted to extend my thanks to such an easy process. We'll be back to store when we have outgrown this order. Many thanks - one happy mum and son.

The staff have always been excellent to be fair when I've been in there. A great New (I think) member of staff was a girl called Emily. Very helpful.

There is a great section down stairs that has shoes for the food industry that are pretty good, one of the best brands are shoes for crews.

The quality of the clothing is appauling, of the 3 dresses I got one had its hem hanging down and one had a hole in the pocket. The people in the shop are very off and were not impressed with my children running around the place. You would think they had never seen kids before! Not a place I would choose to go to but I don't have any choice.

Actually, to be honest, I've always found this shop very useful, and extremely helpful! They…read moreoperate a great postal service through their website too. Admittedly the uniform is relatively expensive, but I've never had a complaint about quality - it certainly compares to that provided at my children's primary school, and very similar price! Maybe I was lucky!

The straightforward no-nonsense name of this shop and the 'national' aspect of it, makes me think…read moreof Soviet Russia. I can imagine there were many shops in Soviet Russia with similar names, where only 1 uniform for each sex was on sale (in tokens of some sort) and maybe a large, ridiculously heavy, old school medicine ball was on display. Well this shop isn't quite as bleak as that,. Though I'm sure for the kids who have to go there, the oppressive atmosphere (being with yer mum, buying school clothes!) and the impending sense of doom (of having to return to school) is similar that of living in Stalin's state. This shop is just really practical and will provide you with all the uniforms and dance shoes a young person could have forced upon them.

These are the sort of shops that only appeal to school attendees, and I use the word appeal in the loosest of definitions. Specialising in school wear from PE pumps to full on uniforms, I remember going to places like this as a kid and getting aches in the back of my knees. I still get this achy feeling when I occasionally go shopping with my mother, or spend too long in a library, but I am missing the point. - "Got a kid?" - "Yes" - "Need school clothes?" - "Yes" - "Then go to the National Schoolwear Centre in Hove.

My daughter has recently started primary school and I needed to buy her uniform. I was advised by…read morethe school that this shop sells some of the school uniform which requires the logo.

It made a potentially stressful shopping trip very easy.
