Uniform & Equipment

At Stoplsey, we are proud of our school community and believe that our uniform helps to create a sense of belonging, promotes equality, and supports high standards of appearance and conduct.
We are committed to ensuring that our school uniform is affordable and provides good value for money for families. Our uniform policy has been developed with regard to Department for Education statutory guidance on the cost of school uniforms and aims to minimise unnecessary expense wherever possible.
Where to Purchase Uniform
Branded uniform items can be purchased from:
Prestige Design & Workwear ltd
Address: Unit 12, Barton Industrial Estate, Faldo Road, Barton-le-Clay, Bedford MK45 4RP
Website: https://prestigedesignww.co.uk/
Telephone: 01582 883222
Non-branded items such as shirts, trousers, skirts, socks and shoes may be purchased from any retailer of your choice.
We have deliberately limited the number of branded items required in order to reduce costs for families.
Pre-Loved Uniform
We are committed to ensuring that school uniforms remain affordable and accessible for all families. Alongside our partnership with Uniform Exchange, we also operate our own in house Pre-Loved Uniform Initiative for members of the Stopsley High School community.
Our in house scheme offers a wide range of quality pre-loved school uniform items, as well as a selection of hygiene products and other essential items to support students and families who may need additional assistance.
