  • Our Uniform Exchange is open again!

    Published 25/05/22

    We are excited to announce that this summer we will be running our school uniform exchange once again!

    Since opening the exchange last summer we have found new homes for over 600 pieces of school uniform.  This means we have prevented over 600 pieces of clothing going into landfill and managed to help some of our families reduce the cost of a new school uniform.

    We are now beginning to collect items for this summer’s exchange.  If you would like to donate any unwanted school uniforms in good condition to us please bring them into the main school reception, send them into school with your child or put them in our drop box at Morrisons, Poplar Street.

    Items we need:

    • Co-op Academy Failsworth Blazers
    • Co-op Academy Failsworth Jumpers
    • Co-op Academy Failsworth PE kit
    • Co-op Academy Failsworth Ties
    • School Skirts
    • School Trousers
    • New Socks
    • New tights
    • School bags
