School Uniform
School uniform is a key part of our identity and visibly demonstrates our commitment to being part of our school community. We are proud to say that students at St Thomas More wear their uniform with pride and respect.
Our uniform is to be worn throughout the whole school year.
Uniform can be purchased from Salto UK (www.saltouk.com/school-uniforms/st-thomas-more-blaydon/) 01661 835240 email enquiries@saltouk.com or from Emblematic (www.emblematic.co.uk) 0191 270 1449 email customerservices2@emblematic.co.uk.
