Making uniform more affordable

We work very hard to keep our uniform affordable by keeping our compulsory uniform items to a minimum and ensuring we obtain the best possible prices from our uniform supplier.

We would also encourage our parents to offer their good-quality used uniform for sale on social media, or they can donate clean, good-quality items to school for one of our Uniform Sales.

If your child is joining the school as a new student, you are in receipt of Free School Meals and are struggling to purchase the uniform, please contact us on enquiries@corbytechnicalschool.org, and we will be able to help you.
