School Uniform

The wearing of the school uniform is important and contributes to creating an effective working atmosphere, ethos and tradition of the school.

Pride in appearance and cleanliness is encouraged at all times.

Please name all items of uniform. 

 

  • Pupils may wear earrings but they must be of small stud type – no hoops or other fashion earrings. Pupils must not wear earrings for PE and must be able to remove the items themselves, no longer will they be able to tape up earrings to be able to join in a session of PE. We urge you to ensure children do not have piercings during term time as we understand they cannot be removed for six weeks. Your child will not be able to access a full PE lesson with earrings in.
  • Long hair should be tied back. Hair accessories should be of school colour (red/white/black/grey) and not excessive.
  • Smart hairstyles support our children's smart appearance. Hair accessories such as slides, ribbons bobbles, etc, should be simple and  in school colours. These are not required items of dress, but we ask that all long hair with chin length or longer is tied back with a plain bobble - this goes for any child, regardless of gender identity; this is purely for hygiene and practical reasons.
  • Any child with short hair must have a simple haircut, with no shaved sections, patterns or lines drawn in. We ask that any holiday haircuts - including bright colours added into the hair or extreme haircuts with patterns and shaved sections are returned to their former, more formal school-appropriate style.
  • Watches may be worn but the children should be made aware that they are worn entirely at their own risk.  They should be removed for PE and games and are the responsibility of the particular child.
  • Make up or nail varnish or false nails are not permitted at any time. 

 

Pre-loved uniform.

We encourage families to return good quality, outgrown uniform back to school so that we can pass on items to all of our school community. At regular points throughout the year, we distribute pre-loved items. Please do speak to the school office, if there are any uniform items you would like us to share.

 

 

Water bottles: we encourage children to bring a bottle of plain water so that they have access to water throughout the day. If you send your child with a water bottle, please ensure you put their name on it.

 

Reading bags: We often send information home in reading bags so ensure you check and empty them regularly. Please do not allow your child to deface their reading bag as it is part of our school uniform and we expect it to be clean and well looked after; if it does meet this standard we request that you purchase a new one. New reading bags can be purchased from the school office.
