Uniform
Please note: The Uniform Shop will be closed between 9th and 13th October.
At Fareham Academy, we expect our students to present themselves in a smart and tidy manner at all times. It is important that students wear the full school uniform and ensure garments are clean, well-maintained, and appropriately sized.
Purchasing Uniform
Blazers, jumpers, ties, and PE kits can be purchased directly from the school. Additional PE items, such as fleeces, training trousers, and leggings, are available through Skoolkit. You can access the Skoolkit shop here.
Uniform purchases and collections can be made at the Community Office (next to the Sports Hall entrance) between 8:30 am and 9:00 am on school days. This service includes collections for online ParentPay orders.

Outdoor Wear
Outdoor coats can be worn over the school jumper and blazer but must be removed once inside school buildings.
Students may store their coats in lockers or carry them to lessons.
Cycle helmets are mandatory for students cycling to school.
Jewellery
We believe that jewellery is not suitable for a formal school environment due to safety concerns and security issues.
Therefore, students are only permitted to wear:
-
A watch
-
A single chain with a religious symbol, which must be hidden from view
-
Single studs in the ear lobe
No other jewellery is allowed.
Hair
Hairstyles must not be extreme or follow excessive fashion trends.
Outrageous or unnatural colours are not permitted.
Shaved heads are not acceptable. Students may be sent home if they arrive at school with a haircut too close to the scalp.
