Helpful and Friendly Service at the Westbourne House School Uniform Shop

The staff at the Westbourne House School uniform shop were friendly and welcoming. They took the time to answer my questions and gave clear information, which made getting everything my son needed quick and easy.

Rachel was so helpful - she was very patient and kind with my son (who has a clothes sensitivity) which made the uniform fitting an easy experience.

Very good service

Very good service. Quick delivery and easy returns via a drop box in Sunningdale. Excellent quality clothing except for the blazers which are extremely thin material and a very wide fit. Some of the sports kit comes up very small but the website does warn to go a size up.

Not ideal

The inability to try clothes on is very frustrating when added to the cost of returns.
There must be a better way.
