Uniform

We encourage our children to take pride in their appearance. To this end all pupils are expected to wear the prescribed school uniform, as we believe this is an important element in helping to develop a sense of belonging to Echelford. We ask parents/carers to support us in this policy by ensuring that children are sent to school correctly dressed.

All logoed school uniform is available to purchase from KS Teamwear in either in person at their shop located at 201-203 Laleham Road, Shepperton, TW17 0AH or online via https://www.ksteamwear.co.uk/. Current price lists can be found on their website.

The remainder of our school uniform can be bought from supermarkets/clothing stores or from KS Teamwear.

Our PTFA also runs a ‘Nearly New’ Uniform Shop at school events, where you can buy our logoed items of uniform. Please ask the school office for details of the next sale. 

Our Home School Link Worker is always available to discuss uniform needs with our parents/carers, as we would not want financial circumstances to limit a child’s sense of belonging at Echelford.

Hair

  • Hair bands should be small and plain in the neutral colours of white, black, brown, beige and blue only.  
  • Decorative and large accessories such as bows and long ribbons are not appropriate for school as they serve no functional purpose.
