School Uniform

Uniform can be ordered online HERE.

We believe that wearing a uniform is a way of showing pride in the school and encouraging a sense of belonging.  Our rules are firm; not just about what pupils wear but also how they wear it, because we know that when pupils look good and feel good about themselves they can produce their best work.  We ask the children to tuck polo-shirts and/or blouses into their trousers and/or skirts and encourage them to be smart in appearance.  Parents will be contacted if what their child is wearing is not considered appropriate for school.  Parents' support for our uniform policy is expected.

  Our school colours are indicated below. We are unable to accept unsuitable passing fashions e.g. denims, cropped trousers, leggings or tracksuits/leisure suits.  Children should wear SENSIBLE footwear to School (i.e. for safety and seasonal purposes) avoiding metal tipped soles, high heels of any kind, open toed and sling back sandals, fashion boots, and other fashionable designs which could lead to accidents and do not fully support the foot/ankle.

You can buy the uniform from any shop as long as it meets the below requirements (Jumpers, Cardigans and T-shirts do not need the school logo but T-shirts must be white and Jumpers and Cardigans must be purple)
