School Uniform

School Uniform at Caldecott

At Caldecott, we want our pupils to look smart and feel proud to wear their uniform. Although this is not necessary for Nursery children, they are free to choose to wear school uniform too.

Our uniform policy is outlined below. We expect all children (of school age) to wear a school uniform either with or without the school logo. There are several local supermarkets that have royal blue jumpers and cardigans available without a logo.

Some of our uniform items are available through our school shop https://myschoolwear.co.uk; all other items including non-logo items are available through many supermarket outlets or other retailers.
