School Uniform
The school uniform is important at BJAB. It helps our children to feel part of a close and happy school community where everyone is included and equal. It also makes life easier for busy parents.
The wearing of the full uniform (including dark blue or black shoes) is compulsory for all our children from Reception upwards for reasons of health and safety, supporting positive behaviour and promoting a strong school identity.
The BJAB school uniform can be purchased online from our supplier, Trutex. To place an order, register and enter BJAB's code: LEA000151TF.
Delivery is free to BJAB and is only available when the school is open (i.e. not at weekends and not when the school is closed on holidays). Standard home delivery is €10, but this service is free for orders over €150.
You can return any items provided they are unused and returned within 60 days of receipt. Please follow the return instructions provided in your delivery paperwork. Refunds may take up to 14 days to process.

Further Uniform Guidelines
With standardisation of school wear comes the need for name tags. Please ensure that all items of clothing are clearly marked with your child’s name. The school cannot accept responsibility for lost items. The school reserves the right to advise parents regarding the presentation of their child’s uniform.
Clothes are expected to be clean and in a neat state of repair and shoes polished. Shirts should be tucked in and jumpers should not be worn around the waist. Shoes should be classic black or navy-blue leather. Patent leather, ballerinas, suede shoes and trainers are not allowed. Boots can only be worn exceptionally when snow is on the ground and, on such days, indoor shoes should be brought to school in a bag. Sportswear is to be worn to school only on PE days or school trips if indicated by the class teacher. If there are sports lessons on the school premises at other times, children should bring their school uniform to change into in a gym bag.
Boys should only wear plain dark navy-blue socks. Girls should wear plain dark navy-blue tights in winter and plain navy-blue ankle or knee-length socks in summer. Crocheted and patterned tights are not allowed.
Hats, scarves and gloves should conform to the uniform listed above. Hair should be worn neatly. If hair falls below the collar, it should be tied back with a navy-blue hair band or slide. Jewellery, pendant earrings, make up and nail varnish should not be worn to school.
