School Uniform

We ask that all learners up to age 16 wear the East SILC uniform and encourage them to maintain a good standard of dress in school. The uniform is designed to be practical, maintainable and good value for money.

Hair accessories such as slides, ribbons, bobbles, etc, should be fairly simple and if possible in school colours.

For safety reasons, we ask that learners do not wear jewellery to school.

At East SILC, we would like our pupils to wear the following items of uniform:

  • White polo shirt
  • Navy jumper/ sweatshirt (branded or unbranded)
  • Dark coloured trousers/ sweatpants
  • Dark coloured footwear

PE Kit

  • White or blue t-shirt
  • Dark shorts/ dark sweatpants
  • Trainers with light coloured soles
  • Dark sweatshirt/ zip tracksuit top in colder weather.

For hygiene reasons, it is important that learners and young people are properly dressed for physical activity. PE kit should be kept in a clearly labelled drawstring bag.

We know that some learners may struggle to wear some items of uniform due to sensory and/or physical needs and understand if your child may need to wear alternate items of clothing or footwear depending on individual needs and circumstances.

Please can you ensure that all of your child’s belongings are clearly labelled so that any mislaid or lost items can be returned home as soon as possible.

If you wish to order any school uniform, please complete the form from School Trends here – Please enter the postcode of the site your child goes to.

It is not compulsory to purchase the uniform from School Trends as the generic items needed for uniform can be purchased from various outlets.
