Uniform

It is our school policy that all children wear school uniform when attending school, or when participating in a school-organised event outside normal school hours. We provide a complete list of the items needed for school uniform in line with the most recent government statutory guidance.

Our policy on school uniform is based on the notion that school uniform:

• promotes a sense of pride in the school;
• engenders a sense of community and belonging towards the school;
• is practical and smart;
• identifies the children with the school and sets the tone for education;
• makes children feel equal to their peers in terms of appearance;
• is regarded as suitable wear for school and good value for money by most parents;
• is designed with health and safety in mind.
• addresses any appropriate equality, diversity and inclusion needs.

Labelling

All items of clothing and footwear should be clearly labelled.  Lost items are placed in the lost property in the KS1 block and parents are recommended to check lost property regularly.  Clothing should also have hooks to enable children to hang items easily.
