UNIFORM POLICY Primary School Issued: June 2010

UNIFORM GUIDELINES All pupils at Morrison’s Academy must adhere to uniform guidelines. Eccentric alterations will not be tolerated. Only regulation uniform items should be worn.

Pupils are expected to be smartly dressed in their uniforms as this reflects well not only on the pupils themselves, but their home and the school.

All items should be clearly marked with the pupil's name.

Soles of white gym shoes must be indoor clean, ie without stones or abrasive materials which could damage the floors in either the Gym or the Games Hall. Pupils will be asked to remove shoes which may cause damage. Pupils must ensure shoes are cleaned for the next teaching session.

No jewellery may be worn with the exception of: • school badges • a single pair of stud ear-rings (girls only) • one plain ring, worn on a finger, which must be removed or taped over for Games or PE. • a watch, but no other adornment, on the wrist.

It is not sensible for any of the above items to be expensive.

In addition • Ties should be worn with the knot covering the top button of the shirt.

• Top buttons of shirts should be fastened.

• Tie knots should be a regular size and not overly large, with the tie at a normal length.

• Shirts should be fully tucked in and not just at the front.

• Blazers should be worn at all times until otherwise directed. Permission to remove a blazer for the duration of a lesson should be sought from the subject teacher • There should be no extremes of hairstyle.

PROPERTY All personal property must be clearly marked with the pupil’s name. Money or valuable items must never be left in locker rooms/changing rooms, desks or bags. It is inadvisable for pupils to carry large amounts of money. Pupils are discouraged from bringing personal property which is not required for daily lessons. Valuable personal items/money should be handed to staff for safe keeping at games or PE lessons.

School books must be protected with brown paper covers and clearly marked with the pupil’s name. Pupils will be required to pay in full for books which are not returned at the end of the session, or which are returned in a badly damaged condition.

SUPPLIERS All items marked c are to be obtained from School Reception.

All items marked d are to be obtained from the suppliers listed below or from the School Nearly New Shop.
