General Points

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS

Where possible, any items of Prince Henry’s uniform made from synthetic fibres utilise recycled materials.  Approximately 5 2-litre plastic bottles are used within a school skirt, whilst the school blazer uses material extracted from 18 2-litre plastic bottles.

THE COST OF OUR SCHOOL UNIFORM

The average cost of either uniform Option A or B (without shoes), including PE kit is approximately £110 (September 2026). The quality is sufficient that, dependent on the child’s growth, it will last for several years.

According to the Children’s Society, parents with children in state-maintained schools spent on average £422/yr on school uniform for each secondary school child, according to their 2023 survey of 1,000 parents across the UK.

Pupil Premium Students, those eligible for Free School Meals and families with financial difficulties can apply for financial assistance towards the cost of the school uniform, please contact the school directly for details.

Pre-loved uniform is also available from the School Shop.
