Our uniform

School uniform and a smart appearance are very important to Lift Richmond Park. The wearing of uniform indicates pride in personal appearance, and reflects acceptance of shared goals and support for the values the school seeks to achieve and is designed with both boys and girls in mind and is smart, comfortable and economical.

Uniform is one of the outward signs by which the local community recognises and makes judgements about our students and it is important that our students present themselves in a positive, professional way that conveys a disciplined and well-ordered learning environment.

All uniform with the academy logo has to be purchased from School Bells Uniform Shop. Uniform can be purchased online or at the shop in Hounslow.

All branded uniform can be purchased at School Bells uniform shop (See contact information below). Non branded uniform can be purchased at School Bells uniform shop or at any other supplier as long as it complies with school uniform policy.

The Academy uniform is as follows; please note that students should be in full school uniform in and on the way to and from school.
