At Campsmount Academy we believe school uniform is important as it contributes to a sense of belonging and fosters a feeling of pride within our school community.

From 1st July 2020, Campsmount Academy uniform will only be available to purchase from SWI Schoolwear (with the exception of ties and sports socks; which can also be purchased from Reception and skirts which can be purchased from Reception only). Orders can be placed online by visiting www.swischoolwear.co.uk or a telephone order can be placed by dialling 01928 752 610 - Option 1.  A copy of the order form is attached below.

To assist you with ordering, a sizing guide is attached below.

We recommend that all orders are placed on or before Monday 1st August 2022 ready for the start of term.  Although this is not a cut-off date, we advise ordering early to ensure students have their items in plenty of time before the start of term.

Our school uniform consists of:

Campsmount blazer

All students are required to wear the Campsmount Blazer.

Blazers are to be worn at all times with sleeves rolled down. Blazers must be purchased from SWI Schoolwear (see link above).

Shirts

All students MUST wear a cotton-type plain white shirt or blouse with a collar.  These can be long or short sleeved.  Shirts can be purchased from SWI Schoolwear or can be purchased from other retailers.

The shirt/blouse must be long enough to be able to be tucked into trousers or a skirt. Shirts/blouses must button up to the top (up to the collar).

Trousers / Skirts

Trousers should be plain black and should not be jean-type material.  A helpful description would be 'suit-type material'.  If trousers have 'studs' on, they will deemed to be jeans.  They should be loose fitting and should not be 'skinny-fit'. Trousers should take a belt so that students' underwear is not visible.

Suitable trousers can be purchased from SWI Schoolwear, or can be purchased from other retailers.

If students choose to wear a skirt, our new tartan style skirt is compulsory.  Skirts must be of an appropriate length (knee length) and worn with plain black tights.

Skirts can only be purchased from the Academy Reception or via ParentMail, any queries regarding skirts or to check stock please contact Sarah Stollery at SST@campsmount.com.
