Uniform
A very high standard of uniform is expected at all times throughout the school day and on the way to and from school. Please ensure that all items of uniform and equipment are clearly marked with your child’s name.

Uniform Rules
Jewellery - The only jewellery permitted in school are plain gold/silver stud in the lower lobes. Analogue watches are permitted.
Hair - Hair should be kept clean and tidy and must not be worn in any extreme style or have an appearance inconsistent with traditional good standards of uniform. We realise that this can be interpreted differently according to culture and ethnicity and are happy to accept and value all kinds of smart as long as these are consistent with the headteacher’s final judgement. We follow the Halo Code. If worn short, hair may have a gradual fade but should not be stepped or a grade 0 at any point. If short hair is worn the same length all over it may be no shorter than grade 2. Hair should be of a natural colour. No patterns or tramlines should be shaved into the hair or the eyebrows. Long hair (below shoulder length) should be fastened or tied back. Hair ornaments should not be worn. Hair bands/hijabs must be plain and either black, white or navy.
Other items required in school:
Water Bottle - Please send your child into school with a full, named bottle of water every day.
Strong waterproof sports bag or rucksack - The children require a strong waterproof sports bag or rucksack not ‘handbag’ style for PE kit.
Change of clothes (EYFS & KS1 only) - We encourage creative and sometimes messy or wet play. We understand ‘accidents’ can happen. Please ensure a named change of clothes are kept in school for such incidents.
Wet weather clothing - Children will also need to have some wet weather clothes and wellies to allow them to play outside irrespective of the weather. Please leave these in school so your child can use them as necessary.
School Bag
Please remember to name all items of uniform.
