Uniform

Children are actively encouraged to wear school uniform every day and we believe it develops a stronger sense of identity and belonging as well as creating a positive image amongst parents/carers and the wider community. We appreciate the support of parents/carers with this and encourage you to ensure that your child always wears uniform.

​A copy of the All Saints Schools Trust uniform policy can be read here.

Children can wear the following uniform -

  • Red sweatshirt/ fleece/ cardigan with or without the school logo

  • White polo shirt

  • Plain black/grey tailored shorts

  • Plain black/grey skirt

  • Plain black/grey pinafore

  • Red and white checked gingham summer dress

  • Plain tights (no pictures) black/grey/white socks or black/grey. NB - Leggings are not school policy for daily use. If your child becomes cold in winter, please ensure you have either trousers or the correct coloured tights.

  • Plain black shoes (no trainers, plimsolls, and for health and safety reasons no shoes with a heel, platform, open sandals and 'Croc' style shoes) 

NB - Jeans are not permitted to be worn to school, unless there is a non-school uniform day.

Fidget toys. Toys, footballs etc

If your child’s class teacher feels that having a fidget toy for part of the day would be beneficial to your child they will discuss this with you and provide an appropriate ‘toy’. Please do not send toys and sports equipment to school, unless you have discussed this with your child’s class teacher.

School uniform providers - 

Our uniform has been kept simple to avoid unnecessary expense. We expect all pupils to follow the dress code as written above.

​We do have second hand uniform available from time to time, so please do ask the school office if this is something you require.

​Very important - please ensure all clothing is clearly named.

Hair - 

We allow all pupils to style their hair in the way that is appropriate for school yet makes them feel most comfortable  Hair should be neat and tidy. The use of styling products should be kept to a minimum.

​Long hair should be tied back during Physical Education lessons with a suitable soft item to prevent entanglements in apparatus and to prevent it obscuring vision.

​A simple hairband or Alice Band may be worn to tie long hair back but anything added as a fashion accessory e.g. bows, Alice bands with ears, unicorn horns, etc, are not permitted.

Make-up and nails - 

  • Nails need to be sufficiently short to prevent injury to self and others, especially in Physical Education lessons.

  • No false nails are permitted to be worn in school as they pose a health and safety risk.

  • We would prefer nail varnish/polish not to be worn in school.

  • No make-up should be worn.

Jewellery & watches - 

  • Earrings can be worn (studs only) but can cause a particular problem for P.E. Earrings should be removed by the child during P.E./swimming. Staff are not allowed to remove or insert earrings.

  • No other jewellery can be worn to school e.g. bracelets, chains, etc.

  • Children can wear watches, but not watches that connect to mobile phones or to the Internet and take photos, e.g. Apple Watch, Samsung Watch, etc. These watches are a distraction and also very expensive, should they get broken, or lost.
