Uniform

We endeavour to achieve a high standard in all of our activities at school. We expect this to be reflected both in the appearance and behaviour of our pupils. All pupils must have full school uniform, worn correctly, for daily attendance at school. Uniform will also be worn on occasions when children are representing the school, including visits.

Parents and carers are asked to provide the uniform and ensure children wear it correctly to and from school, and at other times as required. 

Details of suppliers are at the bottom of the page.
