GREAT CROSBY CATHOLIC PRIMARY SCHOOL

"..... that they may have life, and have it to the full." (John 10:10)

SCHOOL UNIFORM

Principles

It is our ethos that all children should wear clothing that is in keeping with a purposeful learning ethos. Parents are requested to provide a simple school uniform and are asked to support the school by ensuring that uniform is worn

throughout the child's time at Great Crosby. They should always attend school neatly and tidily dressed.

Aims

Our policy for children’s school uniform is based on the belief that a school uniform:

·          Promotes a sense of pride in the school

·          Engenders a feeling of community and belonging

·          Is practical and smart

·          Identifies the children with the school

·          Makes children feel equal to their peers in terms of appearance

·          Is regarded as suitable, and good value for money by most parents
