Uniform
Our school uniform
Our children wear their uniform with pride, promoting equality and a sense of community. We ask that everyone; children, parents and carers help to ensure that the school dress code is observed.
Children need to wear a white polo shirt, navy cardigan or sweatshirt, grey skirt/trousers/shorts.
During the summer term blue and white gingham dresses can be worn. Children may also wear a plain black/navy cap and sunglasses.
Footwear; Black, smart shoes with flat soles. No boots or sandals please. Socks and tights can be navy, black, grey or white.
Please label all items of uniform and belongings clearly to enable lost property to be returned.
We expect hair styles to be smart and not extreme; no bleached, dyed or short shaved hair styles, with no patterns/lines shaved in. Hair that is longer than shoulder length should be worn up, any hair accessories need to be small, navy/black.
We ask that children do not wear temporary tattoos, nail varnish, make up or jewellery, safety studs can be worn for those with pierced ears, for sport /PE/swimming these need to be removed. If this is not possible, please cover with micropore to ensure children’s safety.
A watch may be worn to school, due to safeguarding we ask that ‘smart’ watches are not worn.
