School Uniform
Our uniform was designed by students on the School Council and is an example of student voice at its best! We expect our students to wear their uniform with pride and to present themselves smartly everyday.
Students must wear their blazer at all times – this includes to and from school and moving around the school. Staff will give permission to remove the blazer in lessons when appropriate. If students require extra warmth then the Hayesfield jumper can be worn as an extra layer. Please contact your daughter’s Tutor if there are any problems or confusion with the uniform. We keep a small stock of clean and often new uniform, including shoes, in school. Please be aware that any student arriving at school dressed incorrectly is expected to change into uniform from our stock of uniforms.
Our PTA, Friends of Hayesfield, run Pre Loved Uniform sales throughout the year. If you need anything at any other time please contact our Admin team as they can access the stock and help with any urgent requirements.
Our branded items of uniform are available from Scholars (www.scholars-uk.com) based in the centre of Bath at Terrace Walk, close to the Abbey. They also have branches in Chippenham and Trowbridge. You can order items on their website to be delivered or collected from the shop.
