School Uniform
There are a number of options available to parents for purchasing uniform. Primarily, this is through our suppliers, Stevensons, via their website at www.stevensons.co.uk by clicking on the school logo to register with them. Alternatively, you can ring their customer services department on 01727 815700 to place your order. All items purchased will be posted to you direct. Purchasing items from our suppliers is highly recommended as we have a strict uniform code and the only way that parents can be certain that uniform is correct is to purchase it from our suppliers.

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.
