We believe that a consistent school uniform policy is vital to promote the ethos of the school and provide a sense of belonging and identity for all pupils, regardless of their protected characteristics or socio-economic circumstances. We believe that pupils learn most effectively and achieve their best outcomes when they are comfortable, able to be themselves, and dressed in such a way that sets an appropriate tone for education. Our uniform is as follows:

Jewellery

Permitted jewellery that may be worn is:

  • One pair of stud earrings – no other piercings are permitted.
  • A sensible analogue or digital wrist watch (not a Smart Watch).

Jewellery is the responsibility of the pupil and not the school. Lost or damaged items will not be refunded. All jewellery must be removed during PE lessons

Pupils will not be able to cover earrings with plasters or tape due to health and safety risks associated with this. Parents are therefore encouraged to arrange for their children to have their ears pierced over the Summer holiday.

Hairstyles

The school reserves the right to make a judgement on where pupils’ hairstyles or hair colours are inappropriate for the school environment; however, will ensure that any such judgements do not discriminate against any pupil by virtue of their protected characteristics. Each individual pupil’s scenario will be taken into account where any judgements on appropriateness are to be made, and parents will always have the freedom to complain via the school’s Complaints Procedures Policy.

  • Pupils with long hair must ensure that this does not impede their vision, cover their face or provide a health and safety risk.
  • Long hair should be tied up.

The following hairstyles are not considered appropriate for school:

  • Brightly-coloured, dyed hair.
  • Excessive hair accessories.
Make-Up

The school rules on makeup are as follows:

  • No make-up is permitted.
  • False nails and nail extensions are not permitted.
  • Nail varnish is not permitted.
  • Temporary tattoos are not permitted.
Labelling

All pupils’ clothing and footwear is clearly labelled with their name. Any lost clothing is be taken to the lost property box in the school office. All lost property is retained until the end of half term and then disposed of if it is not collected within this time.
