Senior School Uniform

General Guidance

There will be some flexibility during the transitional term to Christmas 2009, but thereafter we hope to have the new uniform in place. There are no prescriptions as to the book bags or rucksacks used.

Specialist uniform items can be purchased from:

            Barretts Schoolware

            148-150 Seabourne Road

            Southbourne

            BH5 2JA

            (01202) 425192

A second-hand uniform shop will operate in the future, once the new uniform is established.
