We pre-order uniform for every school we supply to, often as early as October (11 months early) so it arrives in time for the “back to school” summer period. As a result, senior school compulsory garment orders go through production very quickly unless there is a supplier issue with stock.
Some of the optional items for each school can take a little longer, we don’t want this to delay your order, where there maybe a delay we will contact you by phone or email to discuss your requirements.
For Primary School orders we are often asked to add the child’s initials to each of the garments, which means we can’t use “stock items”. As a result, a backlog of orders is created over the summer, which our production team do work around the clock to reduce the backlog.

If your full order is not available within a reasonable timeframe our customer care team will contact you to discuss the requirements of your order and how we can help. Where we are faced with a supplier issue, we will offer an alternative item where possible, this is not always possible as some schools require garments from a specific supplier.
Some of our products appear to “jump” sizes. for example, our primary sweatshirts come in either an age 3/4 or age 5/6. This is to benefit parent/carer buying the uniform. We aim for every child’s uniform to last at least a full school year, which means we size for growing room, we want to ensure that the size you buy will last.
For senior schools, we supply in-between sizes for all our child size blazers so that we can ensure the perfect fit. At this age the requirement for a full-size range is greater.
Did you know we can also alter any garment for you with our in-house alterations service? The team in the shop can measure your requirements E.G., shorten the sleeves on a blazer or shorten a kilt and this is usually done within 7 days, early shoppers will be ready in time for back to school with a well-fitting garment.
The uniform we supply comes from the best brands in school wear, which ensures you are buying high-quality products that we know will last, and so you won’t be burdened with buying a new school jumper every month. The longer-term cost to you the parent can be significant.
