BACK TO SCHOOL IN STYLE: 
BEST SCHOOL BAGS

From printed character backpacks to the best children’s lunch boxes, browse our pick of the must-have bags to go back to school in style

Best backpacks for school

When it comes to the annual back-to-school countdown, a fresh bag is certainly up there with shiny new shoes and a pristine pencil case in terms of must-haves. M&S school backpacks are a great place to start. They’re made from water-repellent fabric, so a rain shower won’t mean soggy books, and have adjustable padded straps for comfort. Choose from a range of prints to suit every child’s taste.

Pick the perfect school lunch box

While we’ll never stop pining for our Nineties Forever Friends lunchbox, our latest designs are way more practical (and just as sweet). Colourful and fun, M&S school lunch boxes also feature Thinsulate technology to keep food cool, plus a handy side pocket for drinks storage. They’re designed with a seamless lining that is quick to clean and are machine washable for tackling those stubborn stains.

Bags of character

Whether they’re fans of Minecraft or go mad for Marvel, we’ve got all their favourite characters within our school accessories range. Budding witches and wizards still waiting patiently for their Hogwarts letter will be spellbound by a Harry Potter bag, or enchant little Disney fans with a Lion King-themed backpack.
