Requirements
Lost property

All pupils must dress according to our Uniform Policy, which reflects our values and reinforces our school’s culture of high expectations and academic achievement.

Our school uniform is important to us because it is one way in which we identify ourselves as a school family and it promotes a strong, cohesive school identity which supports high standards and expectations in all areas of school life.

Purchasing school uniform

We have taken care to ensure that our uniform is affordable and to minimise the number of items that need to be purchased from a particular supplier.

Items marked as such must be purchased from one of our suppliers and parents should take care when buying other items to ensure that they meet our expectations.

Lost property

We ask that all clothing is named, including shoes, so that lost items can be returned to their owner. The school cannot accept responsibility for loss or damage of pupils’ property and valuables. All mislaid items are placed in the lost property box, please ask the school office if you wish to look through this box. We endeavour to return all named property, but give unclaimed lost property to a local children’s charity at the end of term.
