Our school uniform helps children feel a sense of belonging and pride in being part of our school community. We ask that all children come to school wearing the correct uniform each day, looking smart, comfortable and ready to learn.

We are very conscious of keeping the number of branded items at a minimum and ask that children have at least one branded school uniform item, along with a school tie (where appropriate). The remaining generic uniform items (e.g. Grey trousers, skirts etc) can be purchased from a range of suppliers.

Branded Uniform can be purchased online from BE Uniforms

Pre-Loved Uniform

We also have a supply of pre-loved school uniform available to purchase from the school at a very low cost. This is a great way to save money while giving good-quality uniform a second life. All proceeds from pre-loved uniform sales go towards FoSS (Friends of Stanwix School) and help support our children and school community.

If you would like to view or purchase any pre-loved uniform, please speak to the school office.

We are also very grateful to receive donations of clean, good-condition school uniform that is no longer needed but still has plenty of life left in it.

Thank you for your continued support in helping us make our school uniform as affordable and accessible as possible for all families.
