As does the money they earn for the school for doing so.

But you knew that didn't you?


It probably cost more (salary + materials) for a teacher to supervise,
package up 5kg of crisp wrappers, print out a postage label and contact
the carrier than the school gets back from Walkers.


If you cost such things that way or are you just scraping the bottom
of the barrel now? How much 'supervision' do you think such a thing
would take, if it's supervised at all. And why a teacher, why not a
student, parent or other volunteer? Have you never been to a school
fundraising thing and seen how much work they often do just to raise a
tenner?

approx 2200 empty packets = 5kg minimum weight package to send to
Walkers for rewards = £10


Yup and with a secondary school with ~1000 students, and people using
it as a drop off point, how long before it's way more than 5kg?

Why are you so against this?
