Our policy on school uniform is based on the notion that school uniform:
• promotes a sense of pride in the school;
• engenders a sense of community and belonging towards the school;
• is practical and smart;
• identifies the children with the school;
• prevents children from coming to school in fashion clothes that could be distracting in class;
• makes children feel equal to their peers in terms of appearance;
• is regarded as suitable wear for school and good value for money by most parents;
• is designed with health and safety in mind.
St Peter’s School Uniform is as follows:
Black trousers/shorts
Black pinafore/black skirt
Blue/white summer dress
White polo shirt (no logo)
Black shoes
Black tights or white socks for girls
Black socks for boys
Navy blue sweatshirt (with logo)
Navy blue cardigan (with logo)
Navy blue book bag (with logo)
Footwear
The school wants all children to grow into healthy adults. We believe that it is dangerous for children to wear shoes that have platform soles or high heels, so we do not allow children to wear such shoes in our school. Neither do we allow children to wear trainers to school. This is because we think that this footwear is appropriate for sport or for leisurewear but is not in keeping with the smart appearance of a school uniform. We require all children to wear shoes as stated in the uniform list.
PE Kit
- Plain white t-shirt
- Black or navy blue shorts, leggings or jogging bottoms
- Black or white PE Pumps/trainers
On health and safety grounds we do not allow children to wear jewellery in our school apart from small stud earrings which must be taken out for PE and swimming.
