School Uniform
School uniform policy
Updated September 2022
In reviewing current uniform, consideration has been made to:
- Reduce the number of branded items
- The cost of a uniform becoming a financial burden
- Avoiding changes between autumn/winter uniform and summer uniform
- Reinforcing the use of the school uniform colour of blue
- Standardising uniform for wear by all genders
- The number of branded items has been reviewed to minimise the overall number of items between uniform and PE kit
- Options provided for PE kit and school uniform, taking into account both costs and pupils with sensory issues
- We encourage the use of second-hand uniform and have a supply of items available at no cost within school
- A review is being made on where to locate a pre-owned uniform swap shop in the school
