School Uniform

At Pyrcroft Grange Primary and Nursery School, we pride ourselves in being well presented, and ready for learning. We believe that wearing a school uniform fosters a sense of belonging to a community, bringing the children together and promoting a feeling of pride and equality.

General Appearance

· Jewellery must not be worn for reasons of safety. If your child has pierced ears, only the smallest of studs should be worn to school, but these must be removed independently by the child for P.E or other outdoor lessons to prevent them from causing injury. Watches are allowed however, smart watches are not recommended and must only be used to tell the time.

· Please note that long hair (shoulder length and below) should always be tied back, for both boys and girls. Hair ties, bows and headbands should be small and discreet in school colours only (burgundy, white, or black).

· Skirts should be an appropriate length and of a style which allows sitting comfortably on the floor. When shorts are worn, they should also be of an appropriate length.

· Children should not wear makeup or nail polish in school.

· Extreme hairstyles are not appropriate for school.

· Any temporary tattoos or drawings on hands or skin (unless for cultural or religious reasons) should be removed before coming to school.
