Uniform Fitting Appointment

The appointment booking system is now open and appointments are available from May to August and will conclude on 23 August 2024. We will not be able to accept any appointments past that date and The School Shop will be closed to prepare for the start of the new term. Appointments fill up fast, so please book early to avoid disappointment. The School Shop will operate by appointment only over the Summer Holidays.

Should you wish to have uniform fitted, please book an appointment by selecting the ‘Appointment Booking’ option within the online shop or follow this link: Appointment Booking. Please complete the booking using the pupil's name and Boarding House where applicable.

Appointment slots are available Monday to Friday between 9.00am - 5.00pm and are strictly 1.5 hours, so please arrive on time. We also kindly ask for only one person to accompany the pupil to the appointment. There is a café next door for other family members to wait if needed.

All clothing will need to be named. Please see Name Taping paragraph at the bottom of this page.

We are not able to accept booking over the phone or email.   If you need to cancel your appointment, please email the School Shop, and book a new appointment if required

We can deliver items directly to the Boarding House

If you cannot attend the fitting appointment, please place your uniform order online. If the order is for a new starter, we will name tape the items in your order (details in Name Taping section below) and deliver directly to the Boarding House.  We will assist the Matron and the pupil at the start of term should any exchanges be required.

If you live in the UK, we can send your items to you

Simply place your  order online and select for the items to be posted to you. Please ensure that you place your order early if you would like items shipped to you to avoid items arriving after the start of term.

If you just need a top up

If you just need a top up or few extra pieces, please either book an appointment to come for a fitting or place an  order online and we can post it to you (UK only).

Name Taping

All clothing must be named.

New starters will be automatically billed £12.95 for 144 name tapes. As standard, we will label all purchased items for new starters at a cost of £1 per item (we use mix of heat press and sewn on name tapes).  If you wish to name tape the items yourself, then please let us know at your uniform appointment or via email.

Unfortunately, we cannot offer our name taping service to current students. It is only available for new starters and we can only name tape items purchased from the School Shop.

If you decide to label the items yourself, then please follow the convention shown below:

First Name Last Name (House Letter) EG: John Smith (A)

A – School HouseB- AbbeyC- The GreenD – Harper
E – WallaceF – AbbeylandsG – LyonM – The Digby

Please note for Sherborne School, boys’ uniform in the ThirdFourth and Fifth Form is different to the Sixth Form, so please be sure to choose carefully. Any product that is marked with a (*) is a mandatory uniform item that needs to be purchased from the School Shop.

Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact The School Shop, either via phone 01935 810 506 or email [email protected].
