Our uniform policy reflects our values and reinforces our school’s culture of high expectations and academic achievement. All pupils must dress according to the uniform policy. Our school uniform is important to us. It is one way in which we identify ourselves as a school community and it promotes a strong, cohesive identity which supports high standards and expectations in all areas of school life. It promotes harmony between different groups represented in the school, and it enhances security.
The majority of items of uniform are available from the PTA School Shop at very competitive prices with money raised helping towards school fundraising. With the exception of any items with the school logo, uniform can all be purchased from numerous retailers. The only items that should always have the school logo is the purple sweatshirt or sweatshirt cardigan and the PE kit polo shirt of house colour.
The PTA Shop is available online and on site, run by parent volunteers; it is located in the Music Hut at the rear of the Junior School Derwent Playground. The shop is open on Monday mornings 08:30 - 09:00 & Friday afternoons 15:00 - 15:20 (term time only)
Polo Shirts, Sweatshirts, Cardigans, Fleeces, PE Polo Shirts, PE Sweatshirts , PE shorts all with the school logo are available.
