School Uniform & Shop

Students are ambassadors of the school and a high standard of dress and appearance is expected at all times.  The Governors of Tring School together with the Headteacher are responsible for setting school uniform regulations. 

We are very proud of our uniform and expect all students to keep within the guidelines set out at the end of this page.

CaptureWe are pleased to be able to offer a range of branded school uniform and PE kit as well as non-bespoke items such as shirts, blouses and stitched down knife pleated skirts.

The quality of the clothes available from the School Shop is extremely good and also excellent value for money and our prices are regularly compared to popular high street brands. All profits go back into the school.

  • We are unable to offer fittings due to space in the new build
  • Uniform is all measured in inches for waist and chest size
  • Please order a larger size for growth

Please place your order online through ParentPay - available 24 hours.

Jewellery

The wearing of jewellery in school is not recommended for reasons of health & safety, security and suitability. We strongly urge parents to discourage the wearing of jewellery at school. If, however, any parent still feels that some jewellery should be worn, only the following is permitted, which must be removed for activities such as sports and practical lessons.

  • One simple chain worn inside the blouse or shirt, i.e. not visible.
  • One simple signet ring, worn on a finger or on a chain around the neck.
  • Bracelets are not permitted.
  • For students with pierced ears, they are permitted to wear one small, plain single-stud in each ear, nothing else. Studs, bars & rings must not be worn on any other part of the body, including the nose, lip, eyebrow, navel and tongue (this is not an exhaustive list).
  • A watch.
  • Badges on blazers – only school issue ie Buddies, Library Ambassador, House etc.

If pupils are asked to remove items of jewellery for sports or practical activities, their safekeeping remains the pupils’ responsibility.
