UNIFORM STATEMENT
Our pupils are ambassadors for the school and are expected to dress and behave in a way that reflects the standards we seek to achieve. Their general appearance, including uniform should be smart and appropriate for school. If they are unable to wear the agreed uniform for any reason the school should be notified in writing by parents/guardians. Without a valid reason the school may send pupils home to change. Clear guidelines are set out in our school prospectus, pupil planner and our uniform policy with regard to uniform requirements.

UNIFORM SWAP SHOP
We are delighted to introduce the 'Uniform Swap Shop'. This is a new initiative developed by our Senior Prefect Team with the aim of supporting families by providing preloved school uniform and PE kit. Uniform 'Swap Shops' are a new initiative gaining traction across the country, letting parents and pupils donate their old uniform and PE kit to others who need it. This system works well for quickly growing children who can go and swop, or acquire uniform that will fit for free. However, there will be an honesty box at each collection point should anyone wish to make a donation.
There are labelled collection boxes available in three key areas;
The School Reception Area
The Learning Hub
The PE Department
We kindly ask that all preloved donations are clean and ironed.
Preloved uniform and PE Kit will be available to parents/pupils at set opportunities throughout the year;
Parents Evenings
School Productions / Music Evenings
Awards Evenings
The first School Monday of the month (from 3.05 - 4.30pm)
Key times and dates will be highlighted via our website, ClassCharts notifications and our social media sites.
If you need to acquire preloved clothing at short notice, please do not hesitate to contact the school office by email on bcs@swansea-edunet.gov.uk. Please mark the email 'Uniform Swop Shop ' to ensure it reaches the appropriate destination

GROW SCHOOL UNIFORMS - NEW AND RECYCLED
In partnership with Swansea Council, we have set up a new project ABC123 which is all about affordable school uniforms. We accept donated uniforms that are no longer required, launder them and then re-sell them at a fraction of the cost of new uniforms. We have a large quantity of uniforms available at our premises in the town centre and we would welcome you to come and see what is available. Please contact us on 07494 966980 to arrange a suitable time to visit.
