A set of 4 small (tiny) individual photos is £8.
There can't be many parents who will say no, they don't want the photos. I suspect even the parents of a few children in Laura's class, who look a bit peculiar on the group photo (God love her, you should see the expression on Victoria's face), will buy the set to avoid hurt feelings. I feel as though everyone is being well and truly ripped off.

When I was at school my mum always bought a big school photo and my Grandma always bought a little one.
You don't seem to be able to just buy the one these days, they all come in packs........it does make it expensive, doesn't it?
