The Uniform  - an Overview

The School uniform reflects the nature and stature of the School.  At Chilton, it consists of a compulsory formal uniform with optional additional items that can be added as parents and students choose.

The compulsory items are trans-seasonal and are worn in both summer and winter.  The compulsory uniform is required for all formal School occasions and may be worn every day but it is only required on one day a week (Monday).

The optional uniform items can be worn to suit the climate, the occasion or the student.  The Chilton Uniform Shop order form is now available for parents who are unable to visit the uniform shop in person.
