Uniform

The wearing of school uniform is compulsory and is strictly enforced for the following reasons:

1. It helps to foster a sense of belonging to a community. 

2. It enables a child not only to identify with but also to be seen as a member of the school. 

3. It assures both parent and teacher that the child is wearing clothes that are smart and sensible, thus removing the potential problems that fashion and competition could bring about. 

Staff at the school will speak to children who are not wearing the correct uniform.
