The School Uniform Shop is open throughout the school year on Mondays and Wednesdays from 3.00pm-3.30pm and Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from 8.00am – 8.30am.
A smart, neat appearance is expected as you are representing The Bulmershe School community. Students who persistently and repeatedly infringe the school uniform rules will be sent home by a Member of Senior Staff until the situation has been appropriately rectified. Students are reminded that trainers should not be worn at any time, apart from Physical Education lessons and when taking part in extra-curricular activities. The parents of any student experiencing difficulties in meeting school expectations for uniform for personal, financial or health reasons, must inform the Tutor in writing in the first instance. If your child is persistently not following the uniform code you may be invited for a meeting to resolve the situation.
