School Uniform Information

Here are the details of our grey and red school uniform at Darwen St James’. A uniform we are very proud of! Our uniform is very important to us at Darwen St James’ and we want our children to look smart and wear their uniform with pride!

Sweatshirts, cardigans, polo shirts, PE kit and book bags with our school logo can all be purchased from local uniform providers in Darwen:

For safety reasons, the wearing of jewellery is not allowed. Only earrings of the ‘stud’ type may be worn. Studs must be removed for P.E. without exception. We recommend that ear piercing should take place at the beginning of the summer holiday so allowing time for healing. During PE or Games lessons, studs and watches must be removed.

All clothing should be clearly labelled, and outdoor coats should have strong loops so that they can be hung safely on pegs. A clearly named draw-string bag should be provided so that PE kits can be kept safely. Bags should be of a reasonable size so that they are easy to store and don’t block corridors.
