It is our school policy that all children wear school uniform when attending school, or when participating in school-organised events outside normal school hours. We ask children to wear their shirts tucked into their skirts or trousers and to take a pride in their personal appearance.

Most uniform can be bought from local high street stores. Deansfield grey jumpers, cardigans, book and PE bags are available from JK Clothing, Eltham. 

Our policy on school uniform is based on the belief that school uniform:

• promotes a sense of pride in our school;
• helps to create a sense of community and belonging towards the school;
• identifies the children with the school;
• supports our commitment to inclusion;
• prevents children from wearing ‘fashion clothes’ that could be distracting in class;
• is practical, smart and designed with health and safety in mind;
• is considered good value for money by most parents.

The Role of Parents

We seek parents support to ensure that their child has the correct uniform and PE kit, and that it is clean, in good repair with their child’s name written on all items.

Children who arrive at school wearing a non-uniform jumper or cardigan may be loaned an appropriate clean second hand item for the day.

Black jog bottoms or leggings can be worn only if the children are having their PE lessons outside and the weather is chilly.

Children are encouraged to bring in their PE Kit on Mondays and take the Kit home for washing on Fridays. Parents are advised by letter if a child does not have a PE Kit available for lessons at school.

Please do not send carrier bags into school as they present a health and safety risk.
