What is the Uniform Swap Shop?

The Uniform Swap Shop is a collection of pre-loved uniform items. It’s primary purpose is to ensure uniform items, which are still in good condition, are reused and rehomed and to save families buying uniform.

What is the Uniform Swap used for?

The Uniform Swap serves many purposes, which include:

  • When a pupil joins Eaton Park Academy and needs uniform items, some uniform basics can be selected from the Uniform Swap Shop. These items can be kept and worn by the pupil.
  • When a pupil outgrows current uniform items and needs items in a different size.
  • This support parents financially as well as it being an eco-friendly approach.

Donate Items

Items can be donated to the school by dropping them off at the school office. They will then be washed and stored.

We will accept all uniform items (with or without logo), including PE kit, as well as quality school shoes and trainers/pumps.
