Academy uniform

Walton has extremely high standards and we expect our students to look smart and presentable at all times. All students must comply with our uniform requirements throughout the academy day. Penalties or disciplinary measures will be taken for those who systematically or repeatedly fail to comply with the Walton uniform policy.

Please see the link to our uniform policy below.
