Children come to school dressed in their kit on PE days.
Children are not permitted to wear jewellery whilst in school, although a watch is acceptable as long as it is removed for PE. Fitbit watches may be allowed dependent on the safety of the activity taking place. If your child has pierced ears, earrings must be plain studs and must be removed for PE and swimming. If your child is unable to remove earrings independently please remove them at home before school on PE days.
There are regular opportunities to purchase good quality used uniform from our PTA.
This promotes positive recycling and benefits the school community.
We expect all parents who send their children to our school to support the school uniform policy, which is simple and cost effective. Parents should therefore ensure that their child has the correct uniform, and that it is clean and in good repair. We may ask children to remove items which do not meet the above description. The Governing Body will consider, with the headteacher, any requests from parents for individual children to have special dispensations due to a temporary or permanent medical condition.
