Sensible, low-heeled black shoes (not trainers) should be worn for school. Appropriate hair styles are also expected as part of the school uniform. Exaggerated colours and styles are not welcome. In this we are reflecting the policies of local Secondary Schools.
PE Uniform
Children should wear navy blue shorts, a white T-shirt and black PE pumps for indoor PE. Trainers, plain navy blue or black tracksuit for outdoor games. Pump bag.
Jewellery
The school follows Health and Safety regulations set down by the Local Authority. In line with our ethos of developing and supporting cultural diversity, we recognise that some parents may wish their child to wear jewellery in accordance with their cultural beliefs and practices.
We would respectfully ask that parents consider the Health and Safety implications and take on full liability for any incidents that may occur whilst in school.
For safety reasons, we ask that rings, bracelets and necklaces are not worn in school. If children have had their ears pierced only studs and not sleepers must be worn at school. By following this guidance we also hope to avoid the added problems of loss.
Name Labels
Please ensure that all items of clothing are clearly labelled with your child’s name. This makes it easier when trying to locate lost property.
