We are aware of some issues around the supply of school uniform for the September 2020 start. We are encouraging students to wear as much of the correct uniform as possibe. If you have an issue, please wear as much of the correct uniform as you have available until the correct uniform is received. A white shirt, black trousers, black school shoes and a dark jumper would be acceptable.Please inform our Welfare Team via in advance if you have concerns over the purchasing or acquiring uniform.

We introduced a new uniform for our students 3 years ago, and a new skirt for girls. The students chose the uniform themselves, with representatives from the student body setting up their own uniform committee. The students wanted a uniform that was more aspirational and smart, something that they would be proud to wear.

Summer Uniform

Parents were keen for students to continue to wear their blazers to and from school so they could be identifiable throughout the year, and we agree with this request. In extreme temperatures the school will make the decision as to whether blazers become optional and will inform parents and students through Parentmail and social media if this becomes apparent.
