OUR UNIFORM POLICY
We think that a simple, comfortable school uniform helps to create a sense of school community and avoids fashion competitiveness. The Belham uniform is very easy to wear and practical - based on the colours navy and pale yellow. It is easy to spot a 'Belhamite' in Peckham!
Parents can mix and match items from the list depending on the weather, and whatever your child prefers - the most important thing is that they are happy and comfortable.

Uniform items with the school logo can currently be purchased online through Marks and Spencer, however we are committed to ensuring no parent experiences a barrier to providing a school uniform for their child, and there is no obligation for your child to wear items of clothing bearing our logo.
You are free to buy items in the school colours from any source you choose. Low-cost uniform is widely available from supermarkets and high street stores including Asda, Tesco and Sainsbury's.
Look out for our Friends of Belham second-hand uniform sales throughout the year; we hope to hold the next sale in May, which means that our new 2022 Reception pupils can purchase items before their September start.
If you wish to purchase new uniform items with the Belham logo, these can be found here:
