Our Trust of Schools

Uniform

We at Lipson Cooperative Academy believe that our school uniform should be worn with pride. It gives a sense of belonging and stops students coming to school in clothes which are unsuitable.

Our uniform supplier is Plymouth Schoolwear located on Mayflower Street, Plymouth.

Plymouth Schoolwear are open Monday to Saturday, 9am to 5pm every week, which gives plenty of time to purchase uniform ready for September.

Plymouth Schoolwear have created an online shop for parents and carers who would prefer this method. Items can be delivered direct to your home (+ delivery fee) or collected in store. They cannot be delivered to the school.

Below is a summary of the uniform required for a new student joining in September, these items can be viewed by clicking this link - Lipson Uniform
