Jewellery
In the interests of safety it is a Governors’ rule that no jewellery may be worn. Children are allowed to wear watches but they are responsible for looking after them. Please ensure that all alarms or hourly chimes are switched off! Parents should contact the Headteacher about medical bracelets.
If children wish to have their ears pierced, please have this done in the first week of the summer holidays. Children can wear small gold stud for school, if they are able to remove them for PE. We do not allow the wearing of ear rings during PE sessions for reasons of safety which is in line with the guidance and recommendations of the Association for Physical Education’s publication “Safe Practice in Physical Education & School Sport”.
Hair
We encourage all children to take a pride in their appearance and to be proud of the school that they represent. Hair should be smart, cut/arranged in a conventional style without streaks, bleaches, colouring and tram-lines. Extremes of hairstyle are not permitted. Long hair must be tied back regardless of gender.
PLEASE NOTE:
- All Pupils are expected to change into separate P.E clothes.
- Although KS1 pupils are expected to be familiar with a variety of fastenings, the emphasis for P.E changing is to keep these to a minimum. We therefore ask your help in sending pupils in trousers or skirts with elasticated waists.
- In the past sandals have been worn in the summer months. However, due to the increased risk of injuries through wearing this footwear, they are no longer school uniform.
- We have very limited space in our cloakrooms and classrooms and so we do not allow large bags to be brought into school.
