Coten End Primary School
School Uniform
At Coten End we aim to make our uniform as flexible as possible for parents, so generic uniform such as trousers, skirts, shirts and red jumpers and cardigans (without the school badge) can be purchased from a variety of outlets, particularly as they can become messy during the course of their learning! Should you wish to purchase items with the school badge on, including polo shirts, jumpers, cardigans, the Coten End book bag, PE bag and school fleece, these can be ordered online via Myclothing, an online ordering service - http://myclothing.com.
It is essential that each item of uniform and PE kit is clearly labelled with your child's name. There are many companies that supply named labels and previously many parents have used Easy2Name, https://www.easy2name.com/, however we have found it best to use a product that 'stamps' your child's name onto the care label as this does not wash off at all. Please follow this link to see the product, https://stamptastic.co.uk/products/standard-name-stamp
‘Friends’ hold second hand uniform sales throughout the year should you wish to donate uniform your children have grown out of or purchase items for your children. We also have an online ordering service for our second hand shop, please use the following link to order uniform from here, https://www.cotenend.zero-waste.org.uk

All too frequently children arrive at school without a coat and the weather throughout the day can be very changeable, regardless of the time of year.
