Ordering School Leavers Gifts for a Whole Class or Year Group on a Budget

For a whole class or year group of school leavers, personalised keyrings are the most budget-efficient gift: bulk discounts apply automatically from 20 items, and the per-item price is the lowest in our school range. Here is how to plan and order for a whole group rather than a single gift.

Why personalised works on a tight budget

A keyring with a child's name on it is a small, lasting item that means something specific to that child. The same applies to a wooden medal: a laser-engraved oak award feels like a real achievement. Keyrings and hug tokens carry the lowest per-item prices in the school range, and medals cost more per unit.

The bulk discount structure

Orders of 20 or more receive 10% off automatically at checkout, scaling up to 35% off at 1000 items. For a class of 30, the first tier applies with no code needed.

• 20 items: 10%
• 50 items: 15%
• 100 items: 20%
• 250 items: 25%
• 500 items: 30%
• 1000 items: 35%

Ordering for a single class vs a whole year group

A single class (typically 25 to 32 children) is straightforward: list all names in the personalisation box, one per line. A whole year group (60 to 120+ children) is best handled with a spreadsheet upload rather than typing each name. Both qualify for the same automatic bulk discount tiers.

Splitting the cost: PTA and parent contributions

Whole-class gifts are often funded by a PTA collection or a small contribution from each family. Prices and bulk discounts are visible before you commit, so you can work out the per-child cost in advance and confirm it with whoever is collecting contributions.

Which products suit a tight budget

Name keyrings such as the Personalised Student Keyrings, with pack sizes from 1 to 100, are the most cost-effective route to a personalised item per child. Medals and larger keepsakes cost more per unit but work well where a smaller number of awards is the plan, for example a handful of achievement medals alongside keyrings for the whole class.
