Uniform

The Olive School, Small Heath promotes excellence and aspiration in everything its pupils do. The Academy uniform is designed to reinforce this spirit of excellence. It is smart and practical, encourages pupils to take pride in being part of the Academy and enables them to act as ambassadors for the Academy’s educational experience.

High standards of presentation are required at all times when wearing the Academy uniform, with clean clothes, tidy hair and no jewellery (except where agreed on grounds of faith). Whenever the Academy uniform is worn, it must be complete and not mixed with non-uniform clothing. This includes when travelling to and from school.

Many items of uniform have a longer life beyond the point when our pupils have outgrown them and could be re-used by another pupil. As well as saving families money, re-using uniform also reduces our impact on the environment.

To support our scheme, we request that parents/carers donate any unwanted items of uniform, in good condition that could be worn by another pupil.

Please donate items that are: Please do not send any items that are:
  • In good condition

  • Branded items (e.g. cardigans/jumpers)
  • Non-branded items (e.g. polo-shirts or shoes)
  • Ripped or torn
  • Stained or marked
  • Dirty/ unwashed.

If parents/carers have any uniform items in good condition that their children no longer wear, they are encouraged to donate these to school.  Parents can drop off the uniform items at the school office. Items should be donated in a clean and dry condition so that they can be passed straight to another family.
