Bradley Stoke Community School has today issued a further letter to parents which confirms the previously announced changes to its uniform policy, effective from September 2018.
"Following feedback from some parents and students voicing concern about proposed uniform changes, extensive discussion took place with Bradley Stoke Community School’s Local Governing Committee at its meeting last week. This letter is to confirm that the changes to uniform as outlined in previous letters are to be implemented from September. Whilst we understand and sympathise with some of the concerns raised, Governors were unanimously in support of the decision to move to one supplier of trousers for uniform for the reasons and rationale already set out in the last letter to parents and carers. These expectations will be for all students in Years 7-11." [continues]
