SCHOOL UNIFORM POLICY
2020-2021
All pupils Charles Kingsley’s CE Primary School are expected to wear full school uniform. A good, clean, smart appearance is an asset to each pupil, and the school seeks parental support via the home school agreement in the maintenance of such an appearance. We are proud of our uniform and the smart appearance of our pupils which is constantly praised by visitors and the wider community. This in turn benefits our young people.
Pupils may wear:

GENERAL NOTES ON UNIFORM AND PERSONAL APPEARANCE
In addition to correct uniform, we expect a smart appearance from all our pupils, including appropriate hairstyles and suitable outer garments.
Braided hair with beads or coloured decorations, extreme hairstyles, spiked, coloured hair or designs shaved into the hair are not acceptable.
If pupils are not wearing the correct uniform, parents will be contacted. All children with longer hair are expected to have it tied back. This is for health and safety reasons as well as to guard against any spread of headlice/nits. Fringes should not obscure children’s eyes.
Earings
We have been a NO EARING SCHOOL since September 2012. Any child wearing earrings will be asked to remove them. This discussion has been made taking into consideration the Code of Practice for PE and Local Authority Guidance.

NOTE
Fashions change with such rapidity that it is not possible to cater for every possibility in print. The school must, therefore, reserve the right to decide what is or is not acceptable to a learning environment, both in uniform and general appearance, in cases not catered for by specific rules. It would be advisable, when in doubt, for parents to contact the school before spending money on items which might not be allowed.
