We believe that wearing uniform helps to create a sense of identity and community in school. Our uniform is smart, practical, comfortable and inclusive and we expect pupils to wear it with pride when at school, on journeys between home and school, and especially when representing the school on visits and fixtures. Pupils who do not meet our expectations about uniform will be asked to change and non-compliance will usually be sanctioned.
Please note that school-branded items should be purchased from our school supplier Schoolyard of Royston. Please visit the Melbourn Village College section of their website to see more information and prices.
Non-branded uniform items can either be purchased through our uniform suppliers or from a high street shop or supermarket.
At MVC, students can hire their own individual locker for each academic year during their time at the school. The lockers are in the corridor by the gym and are arranged in year group blocks. There are a limited number of lockers and allocation is on a first come first served basis.
The locker rental fee is £10 per year or part-year; no money will be refunded if a child leaves the school part-way through a year, or decides they no longer need the locker. The money pays for the upkeep of the lockers and is a payment, not a refundable deposit. Students who hire a locker will be given a padlock and key. If a spare key is available, this will be retained by Reception.
In July of each Academic year, the school will contact parents/carers to ask whether their child wishes to hire a locker for the next academic year. If so, payment should be made by the deadline requested (usually end September). Students who hire a locker agree to the terms and conditions shown on the lefthand side of this page.
