We believe that a school uniform is important:

• It looks smart
• Wears well
• Contributes to a sense of belonging and community
• Gives a common purpose
• Makes children feel equal to their peers in terms of appearance
• Fosters a feeling of pride
• Is designed with health and safety in mind

We ask that all children wear the uniform and encourage them to maintain a good standard of clean and tidy dress in school.  The uniform is designed to be practical, maintainable and good value for money.
