Bradfield School understand that some parents need to source a cheaper school uniform for their child. The British Heart Foundation charity shop on Middlewood Road, Hillsborough sell second hand items of school uniform at a more affordable price. Please ask to see the range of Bradfield School uniform when visiting the store as they may only have a few items on display; the rest is kept in stock. As always, should buying school uniform be a financial hardship and prevent you from buying the necessary items for your child, please contact the school.
Any pupil who does not conform to the school uniform policy, will be dealt with within the normal structure of disciplinary procedures and parents will be contacted. Pupils, where appropriate, will be sent home to change into school uniform.
If required for religious purposes: Cultural dress (e.g. Shalwar Kameez) should be in the school colours (black or navy). The school blazer must always be worn. Headscarves must be plain and in school colours (black or navy). Headscarves must not have loose or trailing material.
