JEWELLERY IN SCHOOL
For Health & Safety reasons we do not allow children to wear jewellery in school, with the exception of a small pair of stud earrings and small objects of religious significance. However, we do ask children to remove these objects prior to their PE lesson or cover them with a plaster to prevent injury to your child. If you decide not to remove the earrings, you must provide a plaster when your child has PE otherwise they will be asked to remove their earrings.
EXTREME HAIRCUTS
We do not permit children to have ‘extreme haircuts’ which could serve as a distraction to other pupils, or have coloured hair. Hairstyles such as patterns shaved into the hair, lines or Mohican style crest are deemed as inappropriate for school. Children with long hair may be asked to tie it up for certain lessons e.g. P.E, DT, Science. Novelty headbands/bobbles/bows are not permitted in school, however children may wear an Alice band which is plain, and blue. If you are in doubt whether a hairstyle is acceptable, please contact school.
NAIL VARNISH
Children should not be wearing nail varnish to school. Please make sure all nail varnish is removed before they come to school. Nail extensions are also not acceptable to have on in school.
We ask all parents/carers to support our school uniform policy, and ensure that all children are sent to school dressed appropriately.
School staff are not responsible if any items removed for lessons go missing in school.
