Uniform is compulsory for all children from Reception to Year 6. As uniform is compulsory, breaches in school uniform rules, including PE kit, will be subject to sanctions. This is in line with DfE guidance, 2013, which states “Teachers can discipline pupils for breaching the school’s rules on appearance or uniform”.

No makeup or nail varnish please and all clothes must be marked clearly with your child’s name
As part of the school’s dress code, the wearing of jewellery is restricted to a wristwatch and small ear studs for both safety and security reasons.
ALL JEWELLERY INCLUDING EARRINGS MUST BE REMOVED FOR PHYSICAL EDUCATION.
Children will be unable to take part in PE lessons whilst wearing jewellery, and they will therefore not be fulfilling the legal requirements of the National Curriculum.
Children in the nursery should be sensibly dressed in easy to manage clothes.
