School Uniform
At Culcheth Community Primary School all children are smartly dressed in school uniform that is appropriate for purpose and comfortable to wear. Our aim is to create a fashion-conscious free environment in which children can work, play and grow.
Uniform
During the Summer Term until the end of the Autumn 1st Half Term the following may be worn:
Grey tailored shorts
Blue & white summer dress with long or short white socks.
Hair must be a natural colour with no extreme hairstyles or tracks. For reasons of health and safety children with long hair (beyond shoulder length) must have it tied back with blue, red, black or white hair tie or ribbons or bands.
Your child will also need a book bag and a PE bag.
PE Kit
All items of clothing should be clearly labelled with your child’s name.
Children are asked to attend in full PE kit on designated PE days.
Suitable Bags
Blue school book bag
Drawstring PE bag
Book bag for homework etc that must fit in child’s tray – no back packs please as there is insufficient space to house them safely.
Jewellery
On grounds of health and safety we do not allow children to wear jewellery in our school.
The exceptions to this rule are gold or silver earring studs in pierced ears, and small objects of religious significance, for example a religious symbol on a chain. We ask the children to either remove these objects during PE and games, or cover them with a plaster, to prevent them from causing injury.
Make-up
The wearing of any form of make-up is prohibited, this includes nail varnish. Any children wearing make-up will be asked to remove it.
Footwear
To complement our uniform we require all children to wear sensible dark coloured shoes, preferably black.
We believe that it is dangerous for children to wear shoes that have platform soles, high heels, or flimsy footwear such as sandals, so we do not allow children to wear such shoes in our school. The school wants all children to grow into healthy adults – training shoes can be seen as a fashion item and are built with sport functionality in mind. Therefore they are not permitted to be worn in school by children on a regular basis as a part of the standard
school uniform.
