Dear Parents,

We are really looking forward to welcoming your child back for the forthcoming academic year. We will continue to promote very high expectations of uniform across the school. We believe that high standards of uniform are a part of promoting high standards of self-care and community. We appreciate all the support that parents give in ensuring that your child leaves for school looking smart and professional each morning.

The pursuit of impeccable uniform across all year groups is our aspiration.

To make sure that expectations and standards are clear from Day one in September and beyond, please see the guidance below.

Should you have any queries, please contact your child's Head of Year, Mr Tamplin (Assistant Headteacher Years 7 - 8) or myself (Assistant Headteacher Years 9 - 11).

The school has a supply of second-hand uniform, for more details please contact your child's student manager whose details can be found here. We run swap shops and opportunities to buy uniform at a nominal fee. 

The school can support with uniform for families who are experiencing financial hardship, please contact your child's Head of Year or Student Manager for more information. Their contact information can be found here. 

Please note that students who are not in correct uniform will not be allowed into lessons until matters are resolved.

I thank you once again for your continued support.

Mrs Paul
Assistant Headteacher (Standards & Culture)

Second-Hand Uniform

We keep a supply of good quality, used uniform in school which will be available for families to access during many school events such as PIEs and PCEs. A donation box will always be available should you like to donate in return for items, but this is not essential.

If you do need support in finding suitable uniform in between these events please do get in touch with your child's student manager.

If you have branded items, such as PE kit and blazers, which are in excellent condition but no longer needed, please do consider donating these to the school by handing them in at reception.

If you have any questions regarding used school uniform please contact Mrs Fulwell, Assistant Headteacher at hfulwell@didcotgirls.oxon.sch.uk.
