School uniform

St Albans Academy has a smart new school uniform which our students have helped design and which we expect every student to wear with pride. Our uniform policy will be strictly enforced and students are expected to look smart every day. The uniform is available through the academy’s uniform supplier, Clive Marks and can be viewed or bought through their online store here or by visiting their store at 38-40 Poplar Road, Kings Heath, Birmingham, B14 7AD.
