School Uniform
Our school uniform is practical, comfortable and smart, helping children feel ready to learn each day.
Wearing it with pride promotes a strong sense of belonging and community, encouraging pupils to represent themselves and their school positively.

Children should come to school in their P.E. kit on their main P.E. day. This allows them to make the most of their lesson time. Children should come in school uniform + trainers on ‘mini P.E.’ days.
Children must not wear alternative sports clothes during P.E. lessons (e.g. football strips, non-school hoodies, branded active wear etc)
Children must remove earrings for their P.E. lessons for their own safety. For this reason, we ask that ear piercing takes place at the beginning of the summer holidays so that children are able to take them out independently by September.
Temporary taping is permitted for new piercings only if they have taken a long time to heal. Parents must provide the tape and an explanatory letter for this. Please note, that this is a temporary measure only.
Jewellery
- Jewellery such as bracelets, rings, anklets, necklaces (etc) are not permitted in school. This is to keep children safe. If a child arrives in school wearing such items, they will be asked to remove them. The item will be taken to the school office and parents will be asked to collect them.
- Small, plain stud earrings are permitted except in P.E. lessons. Hanging, looped or decorative earrings (e.g. butterflies, flowers etc) are not permitted as they can become caught when children are playing.
Make-up
- No child should come to school wearing make-up so as to minimise distractions, promote equality and reduce pressure around appearance, helping all pupils feel confident, focused and included. This includes mascara, eye liner, eye shadow, lip stick / gloss, foundation, blush, nail varnish etc.
Where to Buy Uniform
