We recommend that you take accurate measurements of your child then order based on your measurements.
For products that have size measurements as well as ages, you should always order by size, because the age is only an approximation of size. The height of your child gives a much better indication of which size to buy.

School uniform sizing can often differ from standard kids clothing sizes as uniform is usually categorised by body measurements instead of age. Finding the right size can be tricky as kids measurements change throughout the year. As our products are true to size, we do not recommend sizing down for school uniform. However, a great tip for getting a bit of extra wear out of kids’ school uniform is sizing up by one or two sizes. This gives kids’ nice room to grow but ensures they won’t be wearing anything too oversized.
This guide features a roundup of size charts for the most worn pieces of school uniform, including school trousers, school shirts, and school blazer size charts. A size guide for each individual product can also be found on the product pages, or view all of them in our downloadable School Uniform Size Guide.
