Back to School

We've put together some top tips on essentials for school or college, as having the right items can contribute to a successful, stress-free and organized journey through your education.

Laptop: A reliable laptop is essential for research, assignments, online classes and general productivity. Make sure it meets the technical requirements for your courses and our expert electrical team will be on hand to offer you advice.

Headphones or Earbuds: Good-quality headphones or earbuds are useful for tuning in to online lectures, blocking out distractions and listening to study playlists.


USB Drive or External Hard Drive: Backup your important files and projects by having a USB drive or external hard drive. This ensures you won't lose your work in case of technical issues.


Chargers and Power Accessories: Carry chargers for your laptop, phone and other devices. Portable chargers or power banks can be helpful for charging on the go.


Desk Supplies: If you have a study space in your room, consider getting a desk lamp, ergonomic chair and organizers to keep your workspace neat.


Basic First Aid Kit: Have a small first aid kit with essentials like bandages, antiseptic wipes, pain relievers and any personal medications you might need.


Hygiene and Toiletry Items: Pack toiletries like toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo, soap and other personal care items. Don't forget a shower caddy for communal bathrooms.


Clothing and Laundry Supplies: Bring a mix of clothing suitable for different weather conditions and occasions. Include laundry detergent, hangers, and a laundry bag or basket.


Cooking and Food Storage Items: If you have access to a kitchen, consider bringing some basic cooking utensils, microwave-safe containers, and reusable water bottles.


Bedding and Linens: Sheets, blankets, pillows and towels are necessities for your dorm or room. Check with your college or accommodation for sizing requirements.


Remember, the specific items you need can vary based on your college's location, your living arrangements and your individual preferences. Before packing, check any information provided by your college and consider reaching out to current students for advice on what to bring.
