Whether you’re heading into your first year at university or gearing up for another school term, having the right essentials can make a world of difference in your academic and daily life. The “School & College Essentials” category is designed to provide students with all the tools, supplies, and everyday items they need to stay organized, safe, and productive — both in class and in their dorm or shared accommodation.

In this guide, we’ll break down key products into categories, explaining why they matter and how they support student life.

Study Essentials & Stationery

These are the foundational tools every student needs for lectures, note-taking, assignments, and revision.

Why They Matter:

• Boosts productivity and planning
