There is a standard uniform for children which we encourage them to wear.
Our Uniform comprises of:
Grey or black trousers/skirt/pinafore/shorts
White long or short sleeved blouse/polo shirt
Navy blue jumper/ sweatshirt/ cardigan/hoody
Plain, dark coloured school shoes or trainers
During the summer months, school summer dresses are permitted.
Sweatshirts, hoodies, cardigans, jackets and book bags with our school logo are available online.
P.E. Kit (To be worn on PE days instead of normal uniform)
Shorts/jogging bottoms
t-shirt (t-shirt provided by school)
Sandshoes or trainers
All uniform, PE kits and outdoor coats need to be labelled with the child’s name.
The wearing of jewellery, especially earrings are not allowed because of the possible danger to the wearer and to other pupils. The school accepts no responsibility for the safekeeping of any watches or jewellery.
Uniformsuppliers
Most of the uniform can be bought from a range of different shops/supermarkets as parents choose. For our branded item, we currently have two uniform suppliers so that parents have a choice of where to buy. We recommend checking both suppliers so that you purchase items at the price you wish to pay.
Please note, there is no requirement to wear uniform with a school logo. Items of clothing in the school colours can be purchased widely from a number of supermarkets and stores etc.
Pre Loved Uniform
Preloved items of uniform are often available from our school office.
Role of Parents and Governors
We ask all parents who send their children to our school to support the school uniform policy. We believe that parents have a duty to send their children to school correctly dressed and ready for their daily school work. One of the responsibilities of parents is to ensure that their child has the correct uniform, and that it is clean and in good repair. If any parent would like the school to modify the uniform policy, they should make representation, in the first instance, to the Head Teacher. The school welcomes children from all backgrounds and faith communities. If there are serious reasons, for example religious objections, why parents want their child to wear clothes that differ from the school uniform, the school will look sympathetically at such requests. Similarly, should an item of school uniform prove problematic for a child with disabilities then parents are invited to draw this to the attention of the Head Teacher. The school will not treat children with disabilities unfavourably.
The Governors support the Head Teacher in implementing the school uniform policy. It considers all representations from parents regarding this policy and liaises with the Head Teacher to ensure that the policy is implemented fairly and with sensitivity.
It is the governors’ responsibility to ensure that the school uniform meets all national regulations concerning equal opportunities, and that our school uniform policy is consistent with our policy on equal opportunities. Governors ensure that the school uniform policy helps children to dress sensibly, in clothing that is hard wearing, safe and practical.
