School in May's constituency asks parents for toilet paper
The National Education Union said schools should not be ‘scrabbling around’ for basic resources

SCHOOLS should not be “scrabbling around” for basic resources, an education union said today after a school in Theresa May’s constituency had asked parents to help it buy toilet roll and pens.
St Edmund Campion Catholic Primary School in Maidenhead, Berkshire, made an Amazon “wish list” for parents so that they could help buy supplies.
The list containing 17 items, including the wish for a “never-ending supply” of toilet paper, was sent to parents on Monday and many deliveries have already been received.
