School Uniform
We request that all children from Nursery onwards wear academy uniform. P.E kits are required from Year 1, and all children require P.E pumps or trainers. It is not essential for children to wear our branded uniform. Generic uniform items in the correct colours can be worn, which you can get from a uniform bank, or from any supermarket or other uniform retailer.
The Academy uniform comprises:
- Royal blue sweatshirt or jumper
- White shirt or blouse (white polo shirts embroidered with the school badge are available)
- Grey or black trousers/skirts (Girls may wear trousers if they prefer)
- Black or brown shoes/boots. No trainers or bright coloured footwear allowed.
- Blue and white checked summer dresses may be worn in warm weather
- Jewellery should not be worn unless it is for religious purposes.
- No extreme hair colours, hair cuts or large hair bows
Major items of clothing should be clearly marked with the child’s name. Shoes should be of a type that will not damage the floors and be suitable for children’s normal playground activity. If you do wish to purchase jumpers with the Devonshire logo, please see the link below.
