School Uniform

The school exepcts pupils to wear its school uniform.

We believe that a school uniform is important and has been chosen with health and safety and cost issues in mind. 

It looks smart

Wears well.

Contributes to a sense of belonging

Gives a common purpose

Fosters a feeling of pride and equality.

All children are expected to wear full uniform and we encourage them to maintain a good standard of clean and tidy dress in school.

 

How do I order uniform?

Most parents choose to purchase the uniform from the school office.  To do this we request that you send a message via the Live Chat.

The order process is as follows:

1. Use the Live Chat that is responded to by our office staff and tell us what you want to order.  Please look further down the page for images, sizing and pricing.

2. If the items are in stock we will send it home with your child or arrange pick up, usualy the following day.  If not in stock we will have it to you as soon as we can and within the first couple of days of the new academic year.  We will contact you when it is in.

3. You will then make credit card / debit card payment by using card payment (incl contactless) at the school office reception when you pick up.

Please name all clothing so that clothes found can be returned to the owners.

Jewellery should not be worn at school.  If ears are pierced, children may then wear a single stud in the lower lobe of the ear only.  No other types of facial piercing are encouraged.  Equally, children are not allowed to wear make up of any sort to school.  For safety children must be able to remove earrings for PE, swimming and any other activity as requested by the class teacher.  In some cases tape may be used to cover earrings for PE. This is at the discretion of the class teacher.

The school encourages pupils to have a smart overall appearance.   Where a pupil’s appearance has a direct impact on children’s welfare, behaviour and/or education for the individual or class, the school may take steps to rectify the situation.  The school reserves the right to apply the System of Care to implement this policy.   

Additionally, for very clear Health and Safety reasons, pupils are not allowed to wear shoes with a heel height greater than 60mm.  Students who attend school with unacceptable shoes will be required to change into safer footwear (provided by the school) and replace the shoes as soon as possible.

PE Kit

For health and safety reasons it is important that children are properly dressed for any physical activity.  We now operate a PE Kit Day, whereby children wear their PE kit for the day, arriving to school wearing it.  By children not changing in front of others it supports pupils dignity, identity and also promotes positive safeguarding. 

To ensure children still look smart to school we actively promote our full PE uniform to be worn on PE days:

   Optional/Required  When worn Branded Item   Specific retailer
 Sky Blue Polo T’shirt (for YR-Y4 this is the same as their normal uniform polo shirt) Required for YR-Y6  All year Branded preferred, generic accepted.  Available multiple retailers incl school
 Plain Black leggings, jogging bottoms or tackshuit trousers Required for YR-Y6  All year Generic  Multiple retailers

Pupils will require swimming trunks (not shorts) or swimsuit for Years 3 (or other years (Y4 upwards) where additional sessions are provided).

 

What are the sizing and cost of uniform items?

Length measurement is from top of the back of neck to bottom of waist on clothing.

Width measurement is from armpit to armpit.
