Our pupils wear school uniform because:
- We believe that wearing a uniform protects pupils from discrimination in terms of the pressures of wearing fashion clothing
- We believe that dressing smartly is preparing pupils for a business-like attitude to work
- The uniform allows our pupils to be readily identifiable in public places.
We expect pupils to wear the correct uniform while travelling to and from school.
The school uniform is simple and practical and we rely on parent/carers support to ensure their children wear it correctly and to be neat and tidy at all times.
