The playground pound

Sally McIlveen, headteacher. Basically, children nowadays are beingconstantly brainwashed by all the advertising that goes on around them. I tellyou what - if the children in my school remembered any of their school workas well as they remember the advertising jingles they hear on television, myjob would be a pleasure.

Usually the pupils at our school wear uniforms, but Friday is a nonuniformday, and that's when you really see the power of advertising. The kidsare dressed from head to toe in labels, mainly sports stuff like Adidas, Nike,that sort of thing. And they all look the same!

There's a great deal of pressure on parents to buy children all these labelsand gadgets. They call it 'pester power' - children nag their parents until theyтgive in. I feel sorry for the families who don't have much money, because thepressure is just the same.

I really believe it's time the government put a stop to all this aggressive

television advertising.Mind you, it's worse in America apparently. Schools are actually being

subsidised by companies like McDonalds and Pepsi. Okay, the school getsfree equipment from these big companies, but then the children have to addup burgers or multiply cans of Pepsi in their maths lessons. I think it'sterrible to think that the schools end up promoting a product that's not evengood for the children. I mean, where will it end? Will we see the day whenkids are required to wear Nikes before they're allowed to go to school?Companies like to say they're promoting education and school-businesspartnerships, but what they're really doing is going after the kids' marketwherever they can.

I think it's really sad that children are being forced to be consumers fromsuch an early age. I don't think all this choice is liberating for children - it justmeans that they're getting older younger, and that's a shame.
