Can't you just measure the diameter and length of the broken sections?
There should be no need to replace the entire pole as replacement sections are available from most decent camping shops.

Poles are normally one of a range of STANDARD diameters, and only the overall length is particular to a given tent.
Now I assume you've both binned the broken poles before measuring! If you haven't, check the dimensions (diameter and length), buy replacements from Ebay, camping outlets or the usual 'go to' pole supplier 'Tent Spares' (https://www.tentspares.co.uk/), usually slightly longer than needed, then with a fine toothed hacksaw, cut to required length.
You don't have to replace the whole pole, only the actual broken sections need replacement.

i would suggest you go back into go outdoors and speak to an older more clued up person say over 40 years old, and not the new school leaver who joined last week. try asking for the manager, they do have access to the info, its a case of getting their attn, maybe asking once the schools have gone back and the shop is quieter would get some answers?
