At Windmill L.E.A.D. Academy, we believe that uniform should support children to be active and comfortable. We want children to be able to play, move freely, and explore.
We have made our uniform requirements as simple as possible, so that it is affordable, easily washable and can be purchased from high street stores and supermarkets.
We have sweatshirts and cardigans with our school logo, that can be purchased from the school office and paid for via the Gateway App. Unform can also be purchased from: Just School Wear 12 High Street, Arnold, Nottingham.NG5 7DZ Phone 0115 965 2869
We keep a stock of good quality second hand uniform and we are happy to give these to families who need uniform clothing for free. We also gratefully receive any good quality items of uniform parents/carers wish to donate.
With OPAL lunchtimes, children can end up with some dirt or sand on their uniforms, depending on what type of play they use. Please bear this in mind when purchasing uniform. More information is given on the OPAL webpage about appropriate outer clothing for lunchtimes.
