Uniform Expectations and School Shop
If you wish to order any school uniform orders, please email it to schoolshop@bhbs.hereford.sch.uk
All orders will be prepared and you will be contacted to arrange collection.
Please help us to ensure high standards of dress and appearance by providing a full uniform for your son/daughter in accordance with our uniform code (see attachment below and the BHBS Behaviour Policy 2024 Appendix 1).
This is summarised below but if you are unsure about an item please contact the school office for an up to date uniform code.
Please discourage your son/daughter from wearing a hoodie to school as a jumper or coat. If seen between 8.30 a.m. and 3.20 p.m. they will be confiscated.

PE Kit
All students, regardless of gender, will need the same compulsory items as our Curriculum includes a very broad range of activities for all. Where there is a choice of item it doesn’t matter what gender you are as to which you select. Please see PE Kit list in attachments below.
Compulsory items are all available from club sport in Hereford or on their website. ALL students will need a polo shirt, socks, long sleeved reversible top and skort or shorts - all of these are Bishop's items. Students also need a gum shield, shin pads, Football or Rugby boots and trainers.
In addition, there is the choice of some optional items - track pants with Bishop's logo, leggings with Bishop's logo, 1/4 zip fleece all of which must be regulation items. Students can also wear a navy base layer under Bishop's items.
