Uniform

At Bevington, we believe that wearing a school uniform helps children feel part of our school community and encourages a sense of belonging and pride. Uniform is compulsory for all pupils from Nursery to Year 6, and we do our best to keep it affordable, practical and appropriate for everyone.

We ask families to make sure that all clothing and bags are clearly labelled with your child’s name. This helps us to return any misplaced items promptly.

If you have any questions about our uniform or need support with purchasing it, please contact the school office at info@bevington.rbkc.sch.uk.

Where to Buy

Uniform items with the school logo, such as sweatshirts and cardigans, can be purchased directly at the school. We keep the number of branded items to a minimum and work hard to ensure prices are fair.

We also offer second-hand uniform through our Parent Teacher Association (PTA), giving families a low-cost option and reducing waste.
