Uniform
All children should wear school uniform at all times.
Our uniform is stocked at Natasha’s Schoolwear, 37 Westgate, Bradford, BD1 2QT and Embroidery in House, 182 Highgate Road, Clayton Heights, Bradford BD13 1DS. PLEASE NOTE: All branded uniform items are optional.
The uniform consists of:
- A dark grey or black skirt/pinafore, shorts or trousers (tailored uniform wear – no leggings/jogging bottoms please)
- A white polo shirt – this can be with or without the school logo
- A purple sweatshirt/cardigan for Years Nursery to Year 5 – this can be with or without the school logo
- A black sweatshirt/cardigan for Year 6 – this can be with or without the school logo
- Black socks
- A purple checked summer dress when the weather allows
- Black shorts and white polo shirt or children may continue to wear the winter uniformChildren should also have hats and sun cream for hotter days.
We recommend that sensible sturdy black footwear is worn so that the children can work safely indoors and outdoors. Children should know how to tie bows before they wear lace-up shoes for school. Shoes should be completely black, avoiding different coloured soles or logos.
All children must come in PE kit on their PE days. This consists of:
- A plain white t-shirt
- Black joggers/shorts/leggings/PE skirt
- Children will require black pumps when working in the hall/children will work in bare feet in the hall
- Children may wear a plain black tracksuit and trainers for outdoor games
Cloakroom space is very limited so children should only bring a book bag for their water bottle (plain water with sports cap lid please) and other school essentials.
Children will be using the outdoor spaces frequently. Parents and Carers will be informed when wellies and waterproof jackets are needed. Wellies should be stored in a named plastic bag.
Children do not need to bring in pencil cases as we will provide everything needed during the school day. Please can these remain at home.
Hair, Make Up, Jewellery and Nail Varnish
Parents should avoid ‘extreme’ haircuts and unnecessary colouring of their child’s hair. Natural colour and sensible haircuts are strongly recommended.
Children should not wear make-up, coloured nail varnish, nail decorations or false nails to school. Please save these for the holidays and weekends.
If you are contemplating piercing your child’s ears, we would advise that this is done at the start of the summer break so they have plenty of time to heal.
If your child wears earrings they should only wear studs. Hoop type earrings must not be worn as there is a high likelihood that they can get caught and cause damage to a child’s earlobes. Earrings must be removed by the children themselves for all PE sessions and for swimming. Please teach your child how to do this as staff are not able to remove children’s earrings or apply micro-porous tape.
No other jewellery or elaborate headbands should be worn.
It is essential that all school clothing, PE clothing, pump bags and footwear are marked with your child’s name.
If your child is entitled to benefits based free school meals, a uniform voucher will be issued during the summer term. The voucher can be redeemed with both suppliers.
