As of June 2025, Scottish Government guidance on school uniforms applies to all schools in City of Edinburgh Council (see the link below).
It says “Uniform policies should be flexible and include plain and non-branded uniform items that match school colours. Blazers and branded items of uniform will no longer be compulsory, encouraged or promoted by schools.”
Frogston continues to encourage children to attend in uniform – this includes purple jumpers – as much as possible. However, we have always had a flexible approach to uniform and continue to do so.
Our Parent Council have a Uniform ‘Eco-Store’ to support the reuse of good quality uniform. Your child’s class teachers or other school staff can also support if you need help to afford or access uniform.
