Buying guide
01 — Overview
What are school farewell T-shirts?
School farewell T-shirts are custom batch tees made for an outgoing Class 10 or Class 12 cohort, usually printed with the school name, "Class of 20XX", each student's name, and a collage of classmate signatures on the back. They are worn at the farewell event and kept as a keepsake from the final school year.
Farewell merch is ordered by class representatives, farewell committees and batch councils at CBSE, ICSE, IB, IGCSE and state-board schools, often with the school admin co-funding or approving the design. The main window runs February to April, when board exam batches finish their final school week, with a smaller second window in November and December for half-yearly cohorts. Volumes are smaller than college farewells and budgets are lighter, so fabric choice leans toward cost-effective bases.
02 — Inclusions
What's included in a school farewell merch order
Oversized T-Shirt Cotton Sinker — the contemporary silhouette school batches favour. School name and "Class of 20XX" in large block type on the front, classmate signature collage on the back panel.
Round-Neck T-Shirt Cotton Sinker — the classic farewell batch tee at a lower price point. Used when the school admin co-funds the order or budgets are tight.
Round-Neck T-Shirt Spun Sinker — the cost-effective choice for whole-batch runs. The spun polyester base holds consistent quality across large institutional batches.
Polo T-Shirt PC Matty — a formal polo for schools where the farewell is formal or semi-formal and parents attend. Usually a smaller sub-order for the senior batch and core committee.
Per-piece names and signature collage — DTF prints each classmate's name individually in the same run, and digitised signatures are laid out across the back panel.
03 — Comparison
How school farewell merch differs from college farewell merch
Lower per-piece budgets — school batches spend less per piece than college farewell batches, which pushes fabric choice toward spun sinker and cotton sinker.
School admin approval — designs need sign-off from the principal or coordinator before the order goes through, especially when the school logo is printed. Build that approval time into the front of the timeline.
Parents are in the room — parents attend the farewell, so designs stay tasteful. School name, batch year and signatures are the safe, standard layout, compared with the more freeform graphics college batches print.
04 — Design
Farewell T-shirt design ideas that get approved
The layouts that move through school approval fastest share a few traits. The front stays clean: school name, "Class of 20XX", and the student's name in smaller type below it or on the sleeve. The back carries the personal element, usually the signature collage, sometimes a short batch quote or the section name. Colours follow the school palette or a single batch colour chosen by vote.
Batches that want a more relaxed look choose the oversized cotton sinker cut and a larger back graphic, while schools holding a formal farewell keep the tee for the day itself and put the core committee in PC matty polos with a printed crest. A digital proof of each variant goes to the coordinator before the sample, so changes happen on screen rather than after production.
05 — How to order
How class committees order school farewell T-shirts
Collect sizes and signatures — one or two classmates handle design coordination and the size sheet. Digital signature collection takes 2–3 weeks, so start it early.
Get a written quote — per-piece pricing in writing within 24 hours, split by fabric tier and sub-order (batch tee, formal polo).
Get school approval — share the digital proof with the principal or coordinator before confirming, particularly if the school crest is on the print.
Approve a sample — there is no minimum order, so a physical sample comes before the full batch run.
Production and delivery — the batch is produced through our vetted vendor partner network, then delivered in bulk to the school, with individual dropship to classmates who can't attend or join the order late.
Schools that also run house sports days or annual days can bundle those programmes under one account. See the full school merchandise range for related orders.

07 — FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What should a Class 12 farewell T-shirt include?
Most Class 12 farewell T-shirts carry the school name and "Class of 20XX" in large type on the front, each student's name in smaller text below it or on the sleeve, and a collage of classmate signatures across the back panel. Because parents attend the farewell, this school name, batch year and signatures layout is the safe standard that school admins approve without back-and-forth.
What's the cheapest school farewell tee option?
The spun sinker round-neck is the most cost-effective base for a school farewell tee. It is 100% spun polyester at a notably lower price point than cotton sinker, while holding consistent quality across institutional batches. Batches wanting a softer feel or the oversized fit choose cotton sinker instead. Written per-piece pricing for either comes within 24 hours.
Is there a minimum order for school farewell T-shirts?
No. There is no minimum order quantity for school farewell T-shirts, so a single section or a whole Class 12 batch can order. The batch approves a physical sample first, then confirms the full run. Classmates who join late can still be added, and individual dropship covers anyone who can't collect their tee at school.
Can each batch tee carry an individual classmate's name?
Yes. DTF prints from a per-piece file, so each classmate's name renders individually in the same production run at zero extra setup cost. Provide the class roster spreadsheet and every piece is printed accordingly. The common pattern is a large "Class of 20XX" with the name in smaller text below it or on the sleeve.
How does the classmate signature collage work for school batches?
Collect every classmate's signature digitally; a form with file upload works for most batches, at roughly a 4–6 cm scan per signature. The signatures are vectorised, laid out across the back panel of the tee, and DTF-printed as one collage. Vectorisation adds time at the front of production, and digital collection itself usually takes 2–3 weeks.
How early should we order school farewell T-shirts?
Aim for 60 days or more before the farewell for standard production with a sample buffer. Orders 30–60 days out can run as rush production with a surcharge; under 30 days, stock blanks with print are the option. Add time for principal sign-off if the school logo is printed, so March farewells aren't squeezed against the production calendar.
How much do school farewell T-shirts cost?
Per-piece pricing for school farewell merch depends on fabric tier (spun sinker, cotton sinker round-neck, cotton sinker oversized or PC matty polo), print complexity (single-colour or multi-colour DTF, signature collage), and the SKU mix. Whole-batch spend is the main tee run plus any formal polo sub-order. Each batch receives written per-piece pricing within 24 hours.
Can schools pay for farewell merch through a purchase order?
Yes. Registered CBSE, ICSE, IB and state-board affiliated schools can order against a school-issued purchase order, with advance and balance on dispatch and GST-compliant invoicing. Larger schools running farewell, sports day and annual day programmes in the same year can negotiate billing cycles per account. Terms are set out on the quote.
