Our uniform must be purchased direct from our uniform supplier, SWI Schoolwear and can be delivered direct to your home or to school. Please see their website for current prices. Uxbridge High only holds a very limited stock and does not have uniform for trying on purposes.
Alternatively we sell second-hand uniform via Uniformd. These are items that are in a good condition that have been donated to the school by other parents, and are sold at a low price to parents. Please click on the uniformd link below to see what’s available.
Additionally, if as a parent/carer you have uniform that no longer fits or is no longer used, we ask that you would consider donating to the school. This could be any item of uniform including blazers, ties, shirts, trousers, skirts and shoes. Donated items may be given to parents in need, or sold on Uniformd. All income generated from sales on uniformd is regenerated into uniform assistance for families in need. To donate, please ask your child to carry the items to Student Services.

It is important to note that all students will require football boots. However, these must have moulded rubber or plastic studs (either firm or soft ground versions).

Items that are not acceptable will be confiscated until the end of the half-term, when they can be collected from student services.
Essential Equipment
It is important that students arrive on time and well equipped for every lesson they attend. This prevents disruption to their own learning as well as the learning of others and allows teachers to make the maximum use of teaching time available.
Please find below a list of equipment every student must have for every lesson. If they need to replenish any items, these are available for purchase on ParentPay, which will then be distributed to students in form time.
