The West Bridgford School

School Uniform

The school reserves the right to take disciplinary action against any child whose uniform does not comply with these requirements. For persistent offenders this could result in the child forfeiting their place in the school. The judgement of the Director of Learning will be final in these matters. The following tables provide information on uniform for students at The West Bridgford School.

At the bottom of this page, you will find links and details of our School Uniform provider, Just Schoolwear.

Trousers

Classic suit style trousers in mid-grey, worn at the waist (with a plain buckled black belt – optional) and touching the foot with a crease down the front and zip fly front.  Tight fitting or cropped trousers are not acceptable.  No stretch fabrics, jeans style, turn ups or flares. 

Blouse or shirt and clip-on tie

A school jumper may optionally be worn in addition to the blazer. No other jumper is permissible.
