Uniform
School policy
The Meadow School uniform supports the ethos of our school and enables the children to take pride in our school and feel they belong. The uniform also helps to create a proper working environment and we expect our children to be both smart and comfortable during the working day.
Our uniform can be purchased by the supplier Price and Buckland. Visit the website by clicking this link
Uniform without logos can be purchased from most clothes stores.
We accept donations of old or unused uniform which will contribute to our affordable second-hand uniform rail featured in the school. If you wish to visit this rail or would like to have recommendations on where to buy unbranded uniform, please contact the Office
*IT IS IMPORTANT THAT ALL UNIFORM IS NAMED*
If a child is not deemed to be following the uniform policy, then teachers will make contact with parents. If a further follow up is required, a member of the Senior Leadership Team will then make contact with parents to discuss the matter and see if we can offer any assistance.
