A uniform is more than a badge or item of clothing, it gives a sense of belonging. We believe that the best uniform is one that is high quality, but most importantly – affordable for parents.
A uniform provides children with a routine that will benefit them as they move forward in their education. We have high expectations of all our pupils, and this includes uniform. All pupils are expected to attend in full uniform, unless alternative prior arrangements have been made (e.g due to sensory issues or an injury). Our uniform can be purchased from anywhere, with or without a badge.
The PTA operate a uniform swap. Please hand in outgrown uniform that is still in good condition to Mrs Smith and see the newsletter for details of the regular uniform swap events.

Swimming
Children in Year 5 receive a weekly swimming lesson. Girls must wear one piece swimming costumes and boys swimming shorts with a liner which don’t come below their knees. Long hair must be tied back and earrings must be removed. A £1 coin must be sent into school at the start of year 5 for lockers. We will keep this to use each week during the year.
