School Uniform Policy

New uniform guidance

As you may be aware, government guidance on uniform has changed. The purpose of this guidance is to ensure the cost of school uniforms is reasonable and parents get the best value for money.

With this in mind, we have ensured that, if parents wish to purchase uniform items with the academy logo, our supplier gives the highest priority to cost and value for money, including the quality and durability of the garment.

However, we have also set our uniform to ensure that parents can buy all school uniform items (without logo) from any store.
If you have any questions about uniform, including where you can access second-hand uniform, please contact us.

Uniform

Green fleece with or without academy logo
White polo shirt
Black trousers, shorts, skirt, or pinafore
Black socks or tights
Black shoes or black ankle boots (No heeled shoes or open-toed shoes)

Summer term only – Green gingham dresses may be worn.

PE kit

White or green performance T-shirt (logo optional)
Plain black joggers, shorts, cycling shorts or leggings
Green hoodie (logo optional)
Trainers

Outdoor clothing

As children get outside in all seasons, it is useful for children to also have the following in school:

Waterproof coat
Wellies
Waterproof trousers or suit
Hat and gloves in winter
Sunhat in summer

Hair, jewellery, earrings and make up

Jewellery or make up should not worn, with the exception of watches (smart watches are not permitted) and stud earrings. We encourage parents to make use of the summer holidays for ear piercing. This will enable ears to heal before returning to academy in September.

All hair longer than shoulder length should be tied back. No dyed hair or extreme hairstyles please. Nail varnish or tattoos/transfers should not be worn.
