Uniform

Information for ordering uniform

Building strong relationships with parents and carers – based on mutual respect and trust – is at the centre of our school’s ethos. We want our parents and carers to feel valued and to be fully involved in their children’s learning and development.

Our clearly defined guidelines can be found here and some guidance pictures are included to further ensure that parents and carers are clear about our expectations.

Being fair and consistent is our key aim; if we are consistent in our expectations and responses, we can hold students accountable.

All students should be in the correct uniform for school. Our uniform rules will also appear in the September planner.

Summer uniform:

In the summer term some small edits to our full uniform policy are made to allow students to dress comfortably when hotter days appear. Smartness is still important and so the following is followed:

In the summer term students do not need to wear their school jumper. On colder days, we expect the school jumper to be worn first before a coat. A coat without the jumper is not acceptable.

Shirts should be tucked in and may be short or long sleeved.

Ties should be worn down to the waist.

Tights do not have to be worn with skirts in the Summer Term, short plain (no logos or embellishments) socks in grey, black or white may be worn in their place.

Acceptable:
