Uniform

School Uniform

School uniform is an essential part of the school’s positive ethos and gives pupils a sense of pride and belonging to the school. There are many recognised benefits to having a consistent school uniform. These include:

  • Work Ready – Our young people need to be ready for life beyond school and be aware that their working life will have a dress code.
  • Security – It is easy to spot someone who does not belong to the school community.
  • Affordability – Eases pressure on young people not to have to wear brand names.

Perception – Uniforms enhance the image and reputation of the school in the local community

Expectations

We are determined that our young people will maintain a high standard of uniform next year and we rely very much on the support of you as parents and carers. The list below highlights the uniform expectations we have;

 

  • White shirt/blouse
  • School tie
  • Black jumper/cardigan (no hooded tops)
  •  Black skirt/full length dress trousers (no leggings, jeans or tracksuit bottoms)
  •  All black shoes/trainers (no trainers with coloured laces/soles/toes etc)

Where to Purchase 

Our uniforms can be purchased from Scotcrest Uniforms – click on the logo to be directed to their website. 

Please note our Parent Council – Friends of Alva Academy will provide all 2020 new S1 pupils with their first school tie as a welcome gift.
