School Uniform

 

The school governors and staff feel that a set school uniform is an asset to the school.  It encourages neatness and a "sense of belonging" to our school.  It enables our children to be quickly and easily identified in and out of school, which aids safety and security.  It also helps parents resist the pressure from children to buy and wear expensive fashion clothing.

 

 

Most of the uniform can be bought at high street shops.  Some items, including special items in the school colours or with a school logo can be bought through the PTA at the school.  Details can be obtained from the school reception.

 

 

All items of clothing and footwear should be clearly named as this saves valuable time when items are mislaid.

Boys and Girls Outdoor Wear

  

Sensible Waterproof coat/jacket

 

The school does not feel the following are appropriate:

 

 

• Ankle length skirts, fashion trousers, heavy boots, trainers or fashion shoes

   

• Make-up, including nail varnish

   

• Jewellery - no jewellery except watches and single stud earrings (no more than one per ear).  Pupils need to be able to remove their own earrings for PE or bring tape into school to cover them. 

   

If you are considering having your child's ears pierced, may I suggest you have them done early in the summer holidays to allow time for healing which will allow your child to remove the earrings for PE lessons.

 

• "Extreme" hair fashions such as shaved lines, mohican cuts, hair dye or excessive gel.

   

• Pupils with long hair should have it tied back during lessons
