Dear Parents/carers,
Information re launch of Marks and Spencer Branded School Uniform
Further to our newsletter of 9th May, the school are pleased to announce that we will be moving our school uniform service across to Marks and Spencer. We have spent a lot of time researching the various providers of school uniform and after looking at the quality and seeking references regarding the service from other schools have concluded that Marks and Spencer will provide the best provision for our school.
Please note, there are no changes to our school uniform or logo with the exception of the PE t-shirts which will move from a printed to an embroidered logo. The school are happy to run with both designs as we recognise that siblings “inherit” these and until school stocks expire, please use what you have and then transition to the new design as you need to.
The launch date we have been given is the 18th July, 2016. Marks and Spencer are running a 20% discount promotion on all the items on our dedicated school webpage. Prices will be automatically reduced on the website and this promotion will run from 19th July to 2nd August 2016.This is when you can access the website below and this hyperlink will also be added to our school website.
Please note, this link will only become active when the website goes live on 18th July.

School Stock of Uniform
The school will hold a small amount of ties which you can purchase from the office in case of emergencies! We will also look to purchase sweatshirts/cardigans in each size so you can look at the sizing in school, prior to ordering on line.
With regards to our current stock in school, we are running down our supplies and are discounting all our stock by 25%. We will have the uniform shop open every Thursday from 2.30pm should you wish to seek a bargain and you can also order on-line via our school website until stock lasts. We have book bags, large and small PE bags, Red Hill coats, PE shorts, PE t –shirts in larger sizes and lots of jogging bottoms and sweatshirts for winter PE available, however we only have large size cardigan and jumpers remaining.
We hope you find the new on-line service, efficient in service and excellent in quality. Please do let us know your feedback regarding this.
Yours sincerely
Miss C Butcher
