Our brand is very important to us, and as a employee you are a brand ambassador for our work.
We want you to take pride in your appearance. Your uniform isn’t designed to win fashion awards, but it is fit for purpose – it will enable you to present our brand and actively coach.
We expect all staff to follow our uniform guidelines. Our camps are a neutral space for children and therefore you must not alter your uniform, including your lanyard and name holder, to reflect any causes that are personal to you.
What we provide
If you are new to United Education, we will provide you with a full uniform:
3 x t-shirts
1 x jumper
1 x lanyard
If you return the following year, you will receive:
2 x t-shirts
1 x lanyard
Uniform Standards
We expect staff to look presentable at all times. This means wearing clean uniform that we’ve provided, your lanyard so parents and children know your name, and clean trainers suitable for the activities. If we have adverse weather (hot, cold, wet) you are welcome to wear a baseball cap, or sunglasses, or jacket, but these must be removed when indoors. If you are unsure or have any questions around what you can wear, please speak with your Site Manager or email the operations team.
Remember that you are representing United Education at all times when wearing our uniform and therefore should consider your conduct. You should not be smoking, drinking alcohol or taking part in activities outside of your job responsibilities whilst wearing uniform.
NB: Should your Site Manager, Regional Manager or member of Head Office have concerns about your appearance, you will be expected to rectify this immediately and where necessary at your own cost.
Uniform Collection
Your uniform will be sent directly to your venue for you to collect on your Induction Day.
If you require any additional items before camp, you should request this two weeks before camp begins. After this time, we cannot guarantee that it will get to you on time. The cost of additional items is deducted from your pay.
If you require any additional items during camp, ask your Regional Manager or the Operations Team and we will do our best to get it to you.
