Help with uniform costs
Children who are in receipt of certain benefits and are eligible for ‘Pupil Premium’ are currently entitled to an annual £25 uniform voucher. Please contact the school office via email to request an order form and for more information.
Ordering school uniform
Brigade Clothing provide competitively priced sweatshirts and cardigans embroidered with our school logo and we politely ask that all pupils wear one of these. They can also provide polo shirts, PE t-shirts, book bags, rucksacks and PE bags with our logo embroidered but it is completely acceptable for these items to be purchased without our logo from any other supplier; supermarkets always seem to provide good value items! Trousers, skirts, pinafore dresses etc are also available from Brigade but once again you may find these less expensive through other outlets.
To order from Brigade parents and carers should go to www.brigade.uk.com where delivery is free when you spend over £50. We recommend, if you can, to get together with other parents and carers to avoid these charges.
Samples of most uniform items are normally available to try on at the school office and we strongly recommend that children try on a sample before parents and carers place their order. However due to the current COVID-19 restrictions this is not currently possible therefore please refer to the Brigade measuring guide by clicking here.
Please ensure that all clothing and footwear is clearly marked with your child's full name.

- Gloves and winter hats should be provided for the colder months with sun-hats provided in the summer months. Hats should not include slogans and should only be worn outdoors.
