We believe that a school uniform is important in building the pupils’ sense of identity and belonging to the community of the school. It instils a sense of pride in the school and supports positive behaviour. It is one of the symbols of the ethos of the school.

The school office sells P.E. t-shirts, jumpers and cardigans that carry the school badge. All items of school uniform should be clearly labelled with the child’s name.
Shoes
It is important that children have sensible shoes for school – no boots. Trainers are worn for P.E. only and should not be worn at other times during the school day. Shoes with raised heels, clogs or mules should also not be worn. Sandals that are supportive and are in an appropriate colour are acceptable.
Jewellery
In the interests of safety, no jewellery – chains, rings or decorative earrings – may be worn in school. Stud earrings for pierced ears are acceptable. Standard ‘non-toy’ watches may be worn although the school cannot take responsibility for them and they must be removed for P.E. lessons. For safeguarding reasons, we do not allow smart-watches that have video/photo capabilities. Nail polish and temporary tattoos are not acceptable as part of the school uniform.
Hair
Long hair should be tied back. Each child should have an appropriate hairstyle and haircut for school. The school does not permit children to have haircuts that could serve as a distraction to other children. Hair bands should be worn in school colours – either red/blue or white.
Headwear
We recommend that pupils wear a hat in the summer months, on the playground/field, to protect themselves from the sun (in addition to sun cream – see relevant policy). We also have legionnaire caps (with detachable neck protector) with the School logo available for those pupils who would like one.
