Welcome to Shepherd & Woodward, Oxford's finest schoolwear and childrenswear specialist, in Banbury Road, Summertown.
Shepherd & Woodward is the largest independent schoolwear specialist in the southern counties, supplying school uniforms and sportswear for over 70 schools in Oxfordshire.
Our refurbished store enhances shopping comfort with a much larger shop floor to welcome families, air conditioning, and a bright, contemporary retail environment. Eight changing rooms help reduce waiting times, particularly during the ‘Back to School’ season.
Wading your way through the complicated demands of school uniform lists is daunting. Our trained staff help, advise and guide you on the school's requirements and correct fitting. And the famous Shepherd & Woodward alterations service is on hand for perfect tailoring.
Visiting with your family is easier and less expensive than a city-centre trip. Convenient free 30-minute parking is available directly outside the shop, and a long stay car park is just adjacent at Diamond Place.
