To be fair to VIAT, here is the information about the obligatory primary school blazers:
For the academic year starting September 2026:
Year 6 pupils (current Year 5 pupils) will not be expected to wear a blazer
All other Key Stage 2 pupils (current Years 2, 3 and 4) will be provided with a blazer, fully funded by the Trust*
The Trust will also fund blazers for the Year 2 cohort in 2027 and 2028 (children who will be in Year R and Year 1 in September 2026)*
The Trust will fund all Key Stage 2 ties for pupils who choose to wear a collared white shirt rather than a open neck (revere) blouse
Any families experiencing difficulty in meeting uniform costs are welcome to speak to the school office in confidence, and we will be happy to provide assistance
*When children outgrow their blazers, we would ask that they are passed to siblings or donated to the school’s second-hand uniform store
