School Uniform
On ‘P.E. days’ , children should wear appropriate P.E. kit to school in order to maximise learning time in lessons. Please see the specification below. Class teachers will communicate regular P.E. days with parents and carers. On all other days, ‘jogging bottoms’, tracksuit trousers, trainers or other items of sports clothing must not be worn as a substitute for school uniform.
P.E. kit should consist of the following: plain navy/black shorts, plain white ‘T’ shirt (or with school logo) and pumps/trainers. (Plain navy/black tracksuit trousers for outdoor P.E. if required.) The kit should be worn to and from school on specified P.E. days. In colder weather, children may wear a school jumper and/or plain navy/black tracksuit trousers on top of their P.E. kit if required.
All clothing including underwear and shoes should be clearly marked with your child’s name. Items do not need to be purchased via the online ordering system: uniform items may be generic (no logo) and sourced second hand. A number of second hand uniform items are retained by school and are available for children and their families. We are happy to support families with this as much as we are able and encourage parents and carers to speak to a member of the team should they wish.
We do not allow children to wear jewellery of any sort. Watches must be removed for PE. Children are responsible for any personal property they bring to school, including watches. For Health and Safety reasons, earrings for pierced ears should be removed for school. It would be helpful if children wishing to have their ears pierced could have them done at the beginning of a Summer holiday to give them chance to heal. On the very rare occasions children need to wear earrings for medical reasons, then a permission slip should be filled in at the Office.
