Uniform
Statement of Intent
It is our school policy that all children wear affordable school uniform when attending school, or when participating in a school-organised event outside normal school hours.
Aims and Objectives
Our policy on school uniform is based on the notion that school uniform:
- promotes a sense of pride in the school;
- engenders a sense of community and belonging towards the school;
- is practical and smart;
- identifies the children with the school;
- prevents children from coming to school in fashion clothes that could be distracting in class;
- makes children feel equal to their peers in terms of appearance;
- is regarded as suitable wear for school and good value for money by most parents;
- is designed with health and safety in mind.
Where can you Buy our Uniform?
All our school uniform can be bought from most large supermarkets/retailers such as Tesco, Matalan, Asda, Sainsburys or Marks & Spencer.
