Our school uniform and school tie have been designed and decided upon by children, staff, governors and parents. Children in all classes are expected to wear school uniform at all times. It helps to enhance good order and discipline in the school. It also reflects a good image of Hillmead School within the community.

Most uniform items can be bought in local shops, whereas the items marked with a red asterisk have our logo on them and can be purchased from Fosters Schoolwear Ltd. If you sign up to the Fosters newsletter via their website you will get information about shop opening times.

Please also see the following information about visiting the shop while Covid restrictions are in place.
