Jewellery/Headwear
The safety of your young person is important to the school. No jewellery should be worn to school except for one pair of stud earrings (no multiple studs) and a small plain watch. All items should be removed for any PE activity.
Caps or hats are not to be worn inside or any part of the school building. Traditional headwear associated with a learner’s own religious practices are permitted.
Lost Property
Please ensure that each item of your child’s clothing is named. Learners are expected, where possible, to look after their own clothing. Named clothing that is found around the school will be returned to its owner. However, we are very unlikely to be able to reunite un-named items with their owners. The school does not have a legal liability to replace or reimburse for pupils’ clothing or other properly when it has been stolen or lost in school.
Notices
We would recommend that all learner’s clothing is named.
Where there are particular medical or religious reasons that make it difficult for parents/carers to adhere to the Uniform Policy, please do not hesitate to discuss the matter with the Headteacher.
We will apply the Uniform Policy flexibly as we understand that learners can be anxious about wearing a uniform.
