School Uniform

Uniform

All children should wear school uniform at all times.


Our uniform is stocked at Top Trends 97 Cavendish St, Keighley BD21 3DG and  Whitakers 5 Low St, Airedale Centre, Keighley BD21 3PJ. You can also buy all of our non branded uniform at supermarkets. 


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 navy blue sweatshirt/cardigan -  this can be with or without the school logo
A blue checked summer dress (summer)
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.
Children should also have hats and sun cream for hotter days.

On PE day, children wear PE kit to school. 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 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 reading book/ reading record. Children do not need to bring in pencil cases as we will provide everything needed during the school day. 

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.
Make Up and Jewellery


Children should not wear make-up to school. 


 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.
