Headscarves/hijab:

These may be worn for religious reasons but must be in school colours – red and grey only.  These must also be removed during PE lessons, unless the Head Teacher has given permission following confirmation in writing from parents that the child is post-puberty, and only then if it is close fitting.

In all circumstances, long hair needs to be tied back for health and safety purposes. Hair accessories, such as slides, ribbons, bobble, etc., should be fairly simple and, if possible, in school colours.

Jewellery:

Jewellery is considered to be any form of adornment to the body, which is not clothing.  This includes all kinds of earrings (studs and “sticks”) and bangles. Any items worn from a religious perspective must be agreed with the Headteacher based on a written request from parent/guardian.

Children will not wear any form of jewellery to school, in order to maintain their health and safety.

If a child does wear jewellery, he/she will not be allowed to take part in any form of PE or use any climbing equipment outside.  

Make-up and nail varnish may not be worn to school.
