Gledhow Uniform

The school and governors actively encourage the wearing of school uniform. This gives the children a sense of belonging and identity. The school colours are maroon, sky blue and grey.


Our official uniform is smart yet durable and simple. Please see below for details of Uniform, PE Kit, Swimming Kit and School Reading Bags.


  ***Please write your child's name on all items of uniform.***


Children are required to wear appropriate black shoes or trainers suitable for outdoor play. Please ensure your child can tie laces; otherwise please provide velcro fastenings if necessary.


Uniform is available through the school online shop provided by MAPAC. A small percentage of the online sales are contributed to Gledhow PSA.


There are also items available at:

  • Rawcliffes on Roundhay Road, Oakwood
  • The School Uniform Shop on Harehills Lane, Harehills
  • The School Uniform Shop on the edge of Kirkgate Market, Leeds City Centre (opposite the new John Lewis).


Book Bags and PE Bags are also available directly from the PSA. Please email them with your order at GledhowPSA@hotmail.co.uk


The PSA regularly sell good quality second hand uniform at Parents' Evenings and the Summer Fair.
