Uniform and Equipment Expectations
Students at Colne Valley High School are expected to achieve standards of excellence in all areas of school life including appearance. Wearing the correct uniform supports excellent behaviour, emphasises equality amongst young people and reflects the pride that our students have in being part of the school community. Arriving at school properly equipped, every day, ensures that a student is prepared to engage fully in their lessons, contributing to a smoother, more efficient educational experience. The Uniform and Equipment Expectations Policy must be followed at all times. If a student fails to follow the policy, appropriate sanctions will be put in place and parents will be contacted. Full uniform details can be found within the Uniform and Equipment Expectations Policy:

Uniform Exchange

Uniform Exchange was set up as a community project in 2011 to provide free school uniform to children in Kirklees, should they need it.

Uniform Exchange have collected 1000s of good, used school uniform items from all over Kirklees, keeping the best to pass on to local families. Uniform is given away on a first come, first served basis.

Uniform Exchange receives over 400 requests a week through the summer, so if you would like to order free school uniform in time for September, contact Uniform Exchange as soon as possible via the link below. Please be aware that logo items are limited.

Free School Uniform

Remember to donate your old school uniform

Many children will have grown out of their old school uniform by the end of the year, or may be moving on to a new school. Unfortunately many of these items are being thrown into landfill in Kirklees every year. Do your bit for the environment and support a local family in need by donating your unwanted uniform items to Uniform Exchange, including school bags, trainers and football boots.

There are over 50 donation points across Kirklees; visit the Uniform Exchange website to find donation points in your postcode area. Thank you in advance for your support.
