The report highlights key factors driving the school uniform market growth and prominent players and their developments in the market.School uniform is an important category of the children's clothing industry. There is a growth in the children population and a low infant mortality rate in many countries. This results in an increase in the school-going population, thereby boosting the school uniform market growth. However, there is a growing adoption of online learning and blended learning. With the advent of the internet and new technologies, being physically present in a classroom is no longer the only way to learn. It is not mandatory for students to wear school uniforms for most schools while attending online classes. Hence, the growing adoption of online learning and blended learning may restrain the school uniform market growth.
In New Zealand, the government announced a plan to build new schools and classrooms for up to 100,000 children by 2030. The government has also released specific growth plans for Auckland and Tai Tokerau. It includes funding for a new primary school in Auckland. Over the years, India has also improved access to education across the country. According to the World Bank, between 2004–2005 and 2018–2019, the number of children going to school increased from 219 million to 248 million. Hence, an increase in governments across countries taking up various initiatives to improve the education sector is boosting the school uniform market growth.
