Uniform
We believe that wearing a school uniform is important for our students, as it not only looks smart but gives each young person a sense of belonging and community, and a feeling of equality amongst their peers. Our uniform is designed to be practical and comfortable for our students.
If your child has a place at Vanguard School, you can buy all uniform items from Mapac. Items carrying the school logo must be purchased from this site, however, should you wish to shop elsewhere for the other items you may do so.
Special educational needs and disabilities
We seek to eradicate prejudice and discrimination and provide a tolerant environment in which students feel safe, develop confident positive self-images and are enabled to achieve.
Vanguard School is committed to the need both to eliminate unlawful discrimination and to promote equality for students, but also for staff and others using school facilities. As such, we ensure equality of opportunity in line with the Equality Act 2010. We reduce disadvantages, discrimination and inequalities of opportunity, and promote diversity in terms of our students, our workforce and the community in which we work. We also aim to foster good relations across all characteristics – between people who do share a protected characteristic and people who do not.
