Uniform

We expect all pupils to wear our school uniform and take pride in their appearance.  

All items, with the exception of the school House badge, are available from Cladish who provide a comfortable, high-quality, easily maintained, environmentally-friendly uniform. The jacket, for example, can be washed in the washing machine and is not dry-clean only. Cladish has a shop in Wallington, but also a web-based shop. Your son/daughter will receive a House badge from their Head of House and badges must be worn on the left lapel.

Please note the information about uniforms can be obtained by contacting Cladish in Wallington:

“Sick or fit, bring our kit.”

All pupils, even if they are injured or unable to do P.E., should bring a P.E. kit along with a note from home, as they will still be required to take part in the lesson acting as coaches, choreographers or officials if possible.

Any practical and reasonable request to vary the School Uniform to accommodate compulsory requirements of a pupil’s religion or culture will be considered by the Governors as long as it does not compromise health and safety, security or teaching and learning.  Any request should be made in writing to the Headteacher in the first instance.
