The wearing of the school uniform is seen as a levelling influence and we hope that all children will be proud to wear it. It is compulsory and should be at all times smart and serviceable.

All pupils are expected to comply with the uniform and PE dress regulations and recommendations as outlined in the below School Uniform List.

All parents should note that all boys from the Nursery to Year 6 are expected to have their hair trimmed to a point where it finishes above collar height and above and behind the ears and eyes. Girls or boys should not have their hair dyed in any way.

We ask and expect all parents’ co-operation to ensure that their children respect these requirements. Pupils may, at the Headmaster’s request, be required to be kept away from school if the conditions described above are not met.

Parents should appreciate at the outset that we attach great importance to the wearing of the correct (as described) uniform. The uniform should also fit and not be over-large or too small.

School Uniform List - All Classes Except Nursery

*Please note - Black shoes must be of the conventional lace-up variety (‘Velcro’ fastenings only in Nursery, Reception and Year 1 please).

Uniform for Year 6

On reaching Year 6 all children will be issued free of charge the Year 6 tie. Girls should wear this during winter with a white blouse or shirt/kilt. Boys in the winter should wear grey trousers together with the rest of the standard uniform. During the summer months the boy’s only alteration will be to wear a short sleeved shirt with long grey trousers. The girls may choose to wear the summer dress (or a short sleeved white blouse) the Year 6 tie, kilt and short white socks.

School Bags

All children will need a book bag and sports bag (compulsory), which are available from Whitehall Clothiers. Rucksacks (optional) are available from the school office in two sizes. Please note that other bags should not be brought into school.

Name tapes

Please note that your child’s name should be placed by means of a name tape or permanent ink on all items of clothing and equipment. Young children often misplace personal articles and this simple procedure will certainly help our staff in identifying clothing/equipment.

Coats and blazers

Parents should be aware that it is mandatory that all boys and girls wear their blazers (in the correct size) to school throughout the year. Furthermore, from the Autumn half-term to the end of Spring Term the school coat must be worn over the top of the blazer. An ‘either/or’ policy does not exist.

Second-hand uniform

It may be of interest to some parents that the school has a small stock of good quality second-hand uniforms. The PTA generally organise the buying and selling of any second-hand uniforms. Please contact the school office for more information.
