School Uniform


 
 
 

We are very proud of the school's uniform. Our school uniform plays a key role in promoting pride, self-confidence, and a feeling of belonging within the children.

We ask parents and carers not to send children to school wearing trainers (on non-PE days), nail polish or with extreme haircuts. Additionally, long hair (hair below the shoulders when children are standing up) must be tied up at all times. All hair accessories should be kept to a minimum and in our uniform colours.
 
Children may wear watches, and those with pierced ears may wear small gold studs (no large earrings or hoops). Please note that any watches must be removed for P.E, and plasters put over any stud earrings. No other types of jewellery (i.e. rings, chains or necklaces) are allowed, nor are children’s temporary tattoos.

School uniform is compulsory, and we have a ‘PE Day Uniform’ and a ‘Non-PE Day Uniform’. On the days that the children have PE they come to school dressed in their PE uniforms for the whole day. Please see the table below (please make sure all items are uniform have your child’s name in them):

 

 

PE Day Uniform

 

Trainers

PE pumps should remain in school at all times (children will change into pumps as and when needed for lessons).

Plain black polo T-Shirt (with or without school logo).

Plain black shorts (not striped).

Plain black school sweatshirt (with or without school logo). This will be removed during the lesson if doing PE indoors.

If the weather is cold, your child may wear a pair of plain black jogging bottoms or leggings to school which will be removed during their PE lesson.  Please ensure they wear their plain black shorts underneath.

Any other leggings or tracksuits with brand names or logos will not be permitted. This is to ensure our high uniform standards are maintained and it does not become a ‘fashion show’.

 

 

Non-PE Day Uniform

 

Plain black school shoes (no boots or trainers)

Maroon or grey skirt or pinafore or tartan skirt/pinafore or black or grey trousers/school shorts. On warmer days, children can wear red and white gingham school summer dresses.

Maroon school sweatshirt or cardigan (with or without school logo)

Blue Polo T-Shirt (with or without school logo)

Plain black, grey or white socks or plain black or grey tights.

 

 

Please see the following links to our uniform suppliers.

We also have a selection of used uniforms in schools which can be brought for a voluntary contribution towards school. Additionally, parents and carers are encouraged to donate any used uniform (that is in good condition) to school, so others may use it in the future.

If you have any questions please contact the School Office on 01942 255339.
