After that you put him clothes so he does not go to school naked.

😂 fine
A trick that worked for my son when he was around 3: got him cute underwear (Thomas Train at that time) but they’d go in trash if he soiled them. He soon learned to use the potty so his Thomas train doesn’t go in trash.
Diapers and going potty is confusing for a child. I recommend 3 day potty training book. At 3 years old they will grasp the concept in 3 days but one of the main rules was zero diapers
HANDS DOWN THE BEST READ
The naked trick worked for me. Twice.

Yeah I’m going to go clarify now at pickup. Thanks for the advice!
the only way to go, I potty trained in 3 days with my 2.5 yo
3 days naked and then 3 weeks commando if they’ll allow it otherwise looser fit undies like boxer briefs vs briefs that mimic how a diaper feels on the legs.

They’re making us send him in pull-ups which makes no sense
Read Oh Crap. great method if you actually follow if and pay attention during those first few weeks
Somewhat similar experience with my daughter. We paused for a few months similar to you and picked back up after she turned 3.
Weekend in just underwear and placed the potty in the bathtub partially filled with water so that her feet were in the water. That water definitely helped her relax since she seemed scared to go on both the little potty and regular toilet.
Good luck!

Is it crazy to wait another month or 2? He’s turning 3 mid January. I don’t know if he’s too old to still be in diapers but I just prefer doing this on a weekend when I’m off work (new years etc)
Totally fine to wait until you have some time off! I think when he is ready, he will get it quickly. Some even say wait until 3 to potty train. I wanted to do it as soon as possible and gave up twice before my son got it just before his 3rd birthday. We tried every long weekend we could dedicate to potty training. First at 18 months, then at 20 months, finally success at 23 months. Once he’s reliably trained you put him in underwear for school.
