We believe that wearing a uniform helps to give young people a sense of identify and belonging to the College community. Our uniform is smart, practical, comfortable and inclusive and we expect students to wear the correct uniform with pride during their journeys to and from school and whilst at school.
Students must always wear the correct uniform and all property should be clearly labelled with their name. Students who do not meet our expectations about uniform will usually receive a sanction.
Ordering school uniform
- Branded uniform items, along with many other listed unbranded items, can be purchased from Total Clothing
- Most items can be purchased from high street/online retailers or from local supermarkets
- Second-hand uniform can be purchased (subject to availability) from the PTA by emailing
