Uniform

School uniform is an important aspect of the school, and helps to ensure high standards in everything we do.  All students are expected to wear and take pride in the correct school uniform along with presenting themselves in the most appropriate way for their activities during the school day. 

On days where they have a sports afternoons, students should arrive at school in their sports kit in order to alleviate the need to change.  However, on all other days, full school uniform should be worn – if there is any need to change into their sports kit during the course of this day, students should change back again afterwards.

*these items are available from the school office.

• Coats – school coats (available from the school) are allowed to be worn in the cold weather. 
• Bags – students should use the school rucksack for daily use, and the school sports bag for their sports kit (both available from the school).
• Shoes – these should be black leather, and not trainer like or casual in appearance.   All shoes should be cleaned regularly.
• Hair – Hairstyles should be sensible and not extreme. Long hair should be tied up with appropriate bands or grips. No hair art. 
• Nails – these must be of a safe/appropriate length and not coloured.
• Jewellery – students are allowed to have one piercing in each ear lobe – these are limited to small studs and must be removed on sports days.

All items should be clearly labelled with a name label, to promote independence and respect, students must understand the importance of looking after their own belongings.

Where required, the school reserves the right to make judgements about inappropriate presentation and uniform, and will take appropriate action to find a prompt solution.  Parents should communicate with class teachers when problems with uniform arise.
