Earrings:

A single plain (gold or silver) stud is allowed but only one per lobe - these must be removed during their Physical Education lessons. No other visible body piercing is permitted.

Hair Styles:

Hair should be kept in a clean and tidy condition. Exaggerated styles, excessive hair accessories or exaggerated colours are not acceptable e.g. tram lines, number one haircuts

Naming Clothes:

We ask that all clothes, shoes and personal belongings are clearly marked with the pupil's name as children are forgetful on occasions.

The school is proud of the high standard of dress and appearance of its pupils.  It is hoped that parents will continue to give the school their support with this.

Art & Technology:

Both boys and girls will need an apron for the Food Technology element of Technology.  They will also need a separate over-shirt or apron for Art lessons. These help considerably in the care of clothing during practical lessons.

Physical Education Kit:

NO ASTROTURF TRAINERS, PLIMSOLES OR PUMPS AS THEY ARE NOT SUITABLE FOR SCHOOL SURFACES AND NOT SAFE TO USE INDOORS.

If for any reason a pupil is unable to participate in a P.E. lesson, i.e. due to illness, they must still have their P.E. kit with them as there are non-physical elements that they can participate in and be a part of the lesson and/or the learning process.  A letter from a parent/carer detailing their illness, or injury must also be handed into their PE teacher or the office to be informed.

Gymnastics and Dance Athletics and Cross Country In addition and depending on the weather - sun hat, sun cream, waterproof coat, warm hat, thermals/skins
