## Uniform Information

---

Students at St Andrew’s Academy are encouraged to wear a school uniform throughout the school year. This signals the start of a new school day for students and creates a sense of shared identity amongst our school community.

Non-branded items can be worn or you can order our school uniform online at: **[www.myclothing.com](http://www.myclothing.com) and then search for St Andrew's Academy or from Uniform Direct at [www.uniformdirect.com/acatalog/special\_schools](https://www.uniform-direct.com/acatalog/Special_Schools.html) and then select St Andrew's Academy.**

With Uniform Direct, you can also visit their store if you would like to view or try on items before purchasing:

We do not require a school uniform, but we do ask that parents and carers ensure students come to school dressed appropriately for the season. Comfortable, practical clothing that suits the weather helps pupils fully enjoy both indoor and outdoor learning. In colder months, warm layers, coats, and sturdy footwear are important, while in warmer weather lighter clothing, hats, and sun protection will help keep students safe and comfortable. Being prepared for the weather means every child can make the most of their school day.

### FE Department

In our FE department, students are not required to wear uniform but are encouraged to make sensible choices of clothing and accessories.
