Items to note:

  • The correct uniform must be worn at all times. Any variation, e.g. footwear, must be accompanied by explanation from the parent.
  • All items of school uniform must be clearly and permanently named.
  • Earrings: Are allowed, but only one pair of small, plain studs in the ear lobes. If students wish to have their ears pierced, this should be done at the beginning of the summer holidays, as earrings have to be removed for PE and cannot be covered. No other jewellery is permitted, except watches. We would prefer that children do not wear earrings to school on PE days.
  • Watches: Children should not wear any watch to school which has notifications or tech enabled. This includes smart watches to school and devices such as FitBits. Children should not wear any watches/ devices which can take a picture or make a sound recording. Watches of very high value (including Apple watches and others) should also not be worn to school.
  • Hair: Hairstyles should be appropriate for school. Children should not wear hair gel to create extreme styles. Shoulder length or longer hair should be simply tied up using a plain band and long fringes should be clipped back when children are working. If hair can be tied back, it should be. Any hair accessories (i.e. clips or bands to help style hair) should be of an appropriate design and discreet. 
  • Nail varnish is not permitted.
  • Representing the school in sport: The school has sports kits for those representing the school in some sports or athletics, which children may be given to wear. These should be washed after use and returned to school. For children in KS2 taking part in the swim gala, there are black swimming costumes and green swim squad hats held by the swimming club for children to wear. Parents who would prefer to provide their own swimming costume, can do so but should ensure this is black.

Second hand uniform

We really encourage parents to support our second hand uniform sales, which are kindly organised by a team of parents and happen termly. This is a fantastic way to reuse clothing and save money.            

Mufti days

On non uniform days (mufti days), although children do not wear uniform, we continue to expect that the principles outlined described above are adhered to.

For example, children are not permitted to wear jewellery, hair must be tied back, and clothing must be appropriate, with covered footwear.
