We ask all our children to wear school uniform as it helps them to feel part of Redbourn Primary School. It also ensures that the clothes they wear to school are practical for the purpose. Please make sure all clothing is clearly and robustly marked (a biro will not last) with your child’s name.

All our uniform is available to buy from our online supplier ‘Beat School Uniforms’, who will deliver direct to your door or to the school. In addition, most items of uniform can be purchased from high street stores.

Please follow this link to our uniform supplier.

Alarms and alerts must be turned off watches as they are a distraction.

There are boxes outside the upper school hall and lower school playground for any lost property. Any items remaining in the box at the end of each half term will be donated to charity or disposed of.

Nearly New Uniform

The PTA operates a Nearly New Uniform Scheme for uniform bearing the school logo.  Regular sales and events take place - these will be advertised in the school newsletter.  Items can be donated in the red bin in the office foyer.

We never want money to be a barrier: the school office can always help discreetly, please do ask if you would like assistance with uniform.
