With the overwhelming support of parents, we encourage the wearing of school uniform. We believe that the wearing of the uniform allows pupils to develop a sense of belonging and encourages pride in our school. We are aware that there may be cheaper alternatives to our official uniform but would advise parents to adhere to the colour code.

GIRLS:

• White long or short sleeved shirt (no other colours or polo shirts are permitted).
• School tie
• Knitted navy cardigan, V neck jumper (with logo).
• Navy skirt (not black or grey).
• Tailored, navy school trousers.
• Pale blue and white small checked dress (Summer Term only). No half white/half checked dresses permitted.
• White short or long socks.
• Flat, black, leather look shoes. Trainers with coloured logos are not part of school uniform and are worn only in Physical Education lessons.
• We discourage the wearing of fine mesh tights, but girls are permitted to wear navy 60/80 denier tights in inclement weather.
• No nail varnish or make-up.
• Hair accessories should be small and in school colours.

BOYS:

• White long or short sleeved shirt (no other colours or polo shirts are permitted).
• School tie
• Navy V neck jumper (with logo).
• Grey shorts or long trousers.
• Grey socks.
• Black, leather look shoes. Trainers with coloured logos are not part of school uniform and are worn only in P.E. lessons.

All school uniform is available from Clive Marks (11-13 Boldmere Road) and Uniform Hub (Tracey Hockley, 0121 313 2414, www.uniform-hub.com)

P.E. A white t-shirt with school logo and navy/black shorts with trainers. A tracksuit (navy) is needed for colder weather. Your child should wear their P.E. kit to school on days that they have this lesson.

To avoid unnecessary damage to expensive clothing, please equip your child with an old shirt, adapted and worn back to front – this proves to be an excellent overall for art and practical activities.

Please make sure that all of your child’s uniform is clearly labelled with his/her name.

The only jewellery items to be worn in school are a watch or a pair of stud earrings or any items of religious significance. Jewellery is not permitted during P.E. lessons and pupils will be asked to remove it. In some circumstances, children with newly pierced ears may be told to cover earrings with surgical tape .

If your child has outgrown items of uniform and they are still in very good condition, please consider donating them (freshly washed) to school. We offer regular uniform sales where all items can be bought for £1! Please enquire at the school office about second hand uniform.
