Uniform

Uniform enables pupils to feel a sense of belonging and to feel secure in their environment, free from judgement. It encourages pupils to take a sense of pride in their appearance. For this reason, we expect all pupils to be in full uniform at all times. This is non-negotiable and parents will be contacted if pupils come into the Academy without the correct uniform and these items will be removed.

All uniform must be clearly named, with the child’s first name and surname.

Uniform is available to purchase from Superstitch 86 and Sussex Uniforms, links to both can be found on the Useful Links page

  • We advise children to wear long hair tied back. Hair should be of natural colour. Extreme hair-cuts will not be permitted and should be appropriate for the Academy environment, i.e. no Mohicans or fashionable shaved designs.

Please note – pupils are taught about personal hygiene and are encouraged to take their PE clothes home regularly to be washed. Aerosol deodorants are not allowed in the Academy; however, a roll-on deodorant/anti-perspirant is permitted for Year 5 and 6 children to use before/after PE. 

We reserve the right to forbid items of clothing, accessories and footwear. Similarly, extremes of new styles, or fashion ‘crazes’ are unacceptable.
