School Uniform
It is our policy that all children should wear school uniform when attending school, or when participating in a school- organised event outside normal school hours. We provide a complete list of the items needed for school uniform for
each school, which is available from the school offices.

Aims and objectives
Our policy is based on the notion 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
• is not distracting in class (as fashion clothes might be)
• makes children feel equal to their peers in terms of appearance
• is regarded as suitable, and good value for money, by most parents and carers
• has been designed with health and safety in mind
