Don't miss our Open Event!
Join us on Thursday 26th March, 5.00 - 7.15pm.
Some courses at Bury College will require you to wear a uniform. This helps make sure that all the activities you complete can be done safely and hygienically. Wearing uniforms will also prepare you for industries where this is standard.
Some courses will also require you to have certain equipment, which you will need to be able to participate in practical sessions.
We have created a list of subjects where you will need to buy a uniform and/or certain equipment. Please follow the relevant link to find out what you need before you start your course, the associated costs, and how to purchase your uniform/equipment.
Please only use the below information as guidance for now and do not purchase anything until your place at College has been confirmed and you are enrolled. Further details will be sent to students individually in early August in regards to purchasing kit and details around uniforms and equipment will also be discussed with students individually during your enrolment appointments.
You will have six weeks from the first day of your course to purchase the correct uniform and equipment.
