Information For Parents

School Uniform

EBA are committed to keeping uniform costs as low as possible. In order to do this you may purchase any of our uniform items from a store of your choice and children do not have to wear branded uniform.

Sweatshirts/cardigans, polo shirts, fleece, and showerproof jackets all with the school logo can be purchased from our web shop. This can be delivered free of charge to the school, or delivered to your home for a small charge.

Web-shop on the Price and Buckland website Eaton Bray Academy

The PTA sells "pre-loved uniform" at bargain prices.
Please contact them directly if you would like to know what they have available.

Useful Information

Ofsted Parent View gives you the chance to tell Ofsted what you think of your child’s school


Remote Learning

There may be circumstances where children need to be away from school for short periods, but they are still able to continue learning from home.

This may be due to self-isolation for a period due to covid 19, bubble closure or whole school closure.

In these cases, where a child is well enough to work, the school will provide home learning opportunities to allow a child to continue to progress in line with the curriculum in school.
