Uniform

WE BELIEVE

School uniforms help to define the ethos of an academy and the standards expected.

They help give students pride in their academy and make them ambassadors for their academy in the community.

As an academy we have designed our uniform to ensure that it is inclusive as possible, whilst being mindful to ensure that it is cost effective for parents/carers.
