or:

Uniform Plus

Clive Mark and Uniform Plus will be selling uniform at transition evening at The Streetly Academy on 5th July 2018. 

Uniform Plus will also be at The Streetly Academy dining hall from 3:30pm on 11th and 17th July 2018

When we return in September, maintaining high standards of uniform will be a renewed priority of ours. Please can you ensure that your child fully adheres to the following uniform code:
