School Dress Code

The basic items of school dress are:

School Tie (appropriate to year group and available to purchase from the school reception)
School Blazer or Fitted Suit Jacket (S3 and above)
White or Black shirt/blouse or a White Polo shirt displaying the school badge
Black Trousers or Skirt
Black school sweatshirt/v-neck jumper/cardigan
Appropriate black shoes


The school dress code was revised with the following considerations in mind:

Every Pupil should be readily identifiable as belonging to Prestwick Academy

In Scotland, nearly all high-achieving schools have a high standard of school dress

The dress code should reflect adequately the range of parental opinions and financial circumstances

Senior pupils will have an important function as role models

The desirability of avoiding school uniform becoming an expensive "fashion parade."


Items for the school uniform can be ordered through the school from our supplier, Kylemark.
