Uniform

“ Having a real sense of belonging to your new school is important. Our students are proud to be part of Royal High School and wearing our uniform is a symbol of that pride. ”

New uniform

Wearing smart school uniform is part of being a student at Royal High School Bath - and uniform is worn by children in both our Prep and Senior Schools.

It is important that girls take pride in their appearance and come to school looking smart and adhere to all rules about uniform which are listed below, including rules regarding jewellery, hair and footwear. We ask that all uniform is fully and clearly named.

We have recently appointed specialist garment manufacturer and supplier, School Blazer to supply our uniform which has been designed to be distinct, of good quality and most importantly washable. We will operate a mixed economy until September 2024, and students will be able to wear both our current 'old-style' uniform, as well as our new uniform. Both are acceptable.

To order your uniform, please visit https://www.schoolblazer.com/ where you will be asked to login or register. Once registered, you will find details of Uniform Regulations, Sportswear and Accessories detailed by stage.
