Welcome to Discovery Academy

Uniform

We want pupils to be proud of being part of our new academy. We believe that wearing a practical uniform enhances this feeling of belonging. It is our policy that all children wear school uniform when attending the Academy, representing the Academy, or when participating in Academy-organised events outside normal school hours.  Pupils in Nursery and at the Academy are required to wear the uniform as described below:

  • Dark grey skirt, shorts or trousers together with a light blue polo-shirt (Academy logo is optional) and dark blue academy sweatshirt or cardigan with the Academy logo.
  • In summer pupils can wear summer blue and white checked dresses (not sun dresses).
  • Black shoes – sensible and safe without flashing heels.
  • Tights or socks should be plain in either white, grey or black.  No patterns or characters.
  • Pupils wishing to wear headscarves may do so and these should be plain and dark in colour.

Pupils can wear plain light blue polo-shirts (available from most supermarkets, etc) or those embroidered with the Inspire emblem however we do stipulate that jumpers and/or cardigans are the official Discovery Academy embroidered uniform.

In addition to the Academy uniform above pupils are required to wear PE kit for games:

  • Black sports shorts and a plain white t-shirt.
  • A pair of pumps or trainers without flashing heels.

If you have any queries please contact the Academy office.
