                       School uniform and sports kit list
The school’s uniform supplier is Monkhouse and purchases can be made
online with a click and collect service available in school.

There is also a second hand uniform shop, 2Kit, run by volunteers from the
PFA. The dates of their pop up shops are advertised on our website.

Standard of dress and appearance

All pupils must wear the school uniform correctly, to and from school and
normally for all occasions when they are representing the school: this
includes school visits and sports fixtures whether or not these are in school
hours. Exceptions to this will be notified by the member of staff in charge of
the activity.

It is essential for the appearance of all pupils to be compatible with their
attendance at a uniformed school which has high expectations of good
behaviour. The following uniform regulations constitute part of the terms and
conditions signed by parents when they accept a place for their child at the
school. To save the expense of replacement of unacceptable items we ask
parents to adhere to the details of the school’s uniform regulations when
equipping their child. The decision of the school is final in respect of all
school uniform regulations.

Appearance of students
   • All students are expected to keep their hair clean, of a natural single
      colour, tidy and out of the eyes.
   • Hair should not be cut shorter than a No.2.
   • Hair which falls to the shoulders is considered to be long. Long hair
      should be tied back at all times.
   • Hair accessories should be plain and in school colours. No decorative
      hair braiding or beading is allowed.

    •   Where a headscarf is worn, this should be plain and in tune with
        school colours. The full face of a student must be visible at all times.
    •   Students should keep themselves clean-shaven at all times.
    •   Make-up and nail varnish are not allowed. This includes tinted lip
        balms.
    •   Tattoos (temporary or permanent) and facial and body piercings
        should not be visible at any time.

Jewellery
Apart from wrist watches, items of jewellery are not considered appropriate
with the exception of the following:

    •   Neck chains, medallions and name bracelets, if worn, must not be
        visible while in school uniform and must be removed for PE. This
        includes medical detailed jewellery.
    •   Rings on fingers are not permitted.
    •   Plain ear studs; one per ear and worn only in ear lobes are permitted.

All jewellery must be removed for PE and games lessons without exception.

All jewellery/watches of significant value (cost or sentimental) should not be
brought into school and is done so at the owner’s risk.

If you require clarification on the regulations or have personal requirements,
you must discuss this with the relevant Deputy Head (Pastoral) in Primary
School or the relevant Head of Year or Senior Deputy Head (Pastoral) in
Senior School at your earliest convenience.

Naming of uniform
When naming sports and PE kit please ensure names are displayed clearly
and legibly.

You may embroider or attach name labels on the outside of the garment as
follows:
     • On the left hand side (as you look at the garment) of the chest on
         tops and swimsuits, on the coloured side of the rugby shirt;
     • On the left hand side at hip level on shorts, games skirts, tracksuit
         bottoms, swimming trunks;
     • Towels, socks and footwear should be named on the outside if at all
         possible.
     • It is our experience that iron-on labels are not as durable or as visible
         as the embroidered variety.

School bags
Your child will require the following carriers for their books, kit and other
items:

Pupils in all years may bring in to school a small single shoulder bag (e.g. a
laptop or messenger bag) capable of carrying their laptop and the small
number of books, files or equipment needed for two lessons (not for water
bottles). To avoid the potential health and safety concerns of having
numerous large bags in classrooms or corridors, parents are asked not to
purchase or provide full sized school bags, backpacks, sports bags or similar
for this purpose. In terms of colour or style, exactly as with other bags
already used at school, these items should be sober in colour and should not
have garish or excessive external branding.

Lockers
Please note the size of our lockers when purchasing school bags. We do not

pupils and parents to ensure that our systems work effectively. Bags must fit
(together when necessary) into our lockers which have dimensions of:

   89mm (H) x 381mm (W) x 457mm (D)
