Second-hand Uniform
- We stock a large variety of second-hand uniform in school. This ranges from shirts to trousers, to jumpers and cardigans. For more information please speak to your child’s class teacher or contact the academy office.
- Twice a year we also aim to have a “uniform day”, where we take all second-hand uniform supplies and encourage parents to help themselves to anything that they may need.
- We also take in donations of second-hand uniform.
Please note – We do not allow aerosol type sprays to be brought to the academy as these can adversely affect asthma sufferers.
Valuables
All valuables brought to school remain the responsibility of the child who brings them. Neither the academy nor academy trust will accept any responsibility for loss or damage. However, if asked, class teachers will lock valuables away for safe keeping during the day.
Mobile Phones/Devices
If a pupil brings a mobile phone to the academy it must be handed to their class teacher or brought to the academy office straight after morning registration. On first bringing a phone, pupils and parents must read and sign the academy Mobile Device Policy.
