In school we positively encourage pupils to wear the uniform so that they are appropriately and safely dressed for a wide range of activities; that they share in the common aims and values of our school; and that they have a sense of belonging. Uniform with the academy logo can be purchased here and non logo uniform from various supermarkets etc.

Day Wear

• Grey standard school trousers, shorts, skirt, pinafore or culottes.
• White polo shirt (with or without school badge) with Royal Blue school sweatshirt or cardigan with or with out a school badge.
• Children may wear summer dresses when warm, in blue and white gingham, check or stripe.
• Dark, white or grey socks or knitted tights in black, grey or white. Plain sensible flat waterproof footwear.

PE days will be notified to parents via text and Class Dojo each term and PE kit should be worn for the whole of those days.

NOTE

Parents must ensure that the appropriate kit is provided for PE Games and swimming lessons. If it is forgotten in exceptional circumstances parents will be telephoned and requested to bring it for the lesson. If parents cannot be contacted, children will be provided with kit from school, which they will be required to take home, wash and return. If for medical reasons a child needs to miss PE, games or swimming, a letter is required from parents. Any medical requirements needed by the school in order for the child to be included in a lesson must be given prior to the lesson.

Naming Items

It is essential that all items of clothing are clearly labelled with the child’s name.

Jewellery and Watches

For safety reasons we discourage children from wearing any kind of jewellery. Children with pierced ears may only wear plain studs. On swimming and PE days all jewellery should be removed before coming to school. The wearing of make up and nail varnish is not permitted. Watches may be worn by Key Stage 2 pupils but should not be those that can take photographs.
