SCHOOL
UNIFORM

It is the policy of the school that all children will wear our agreed uniform each day.

 

THE WEARING OF SCHOOL UNIFORM CAN PLAY A KEY ROLE IN:

​

  • Promoting the ethos of our school

  • Providing a sense of belonging and identity

  • Setting an appropriate tone for education

​

OUR SCHOOL’S UNIFORM

​

  • Dark grey or black skirt or trousers (tailored shorts in summer, if required) 

  • White shirt with collar – worn with the school tie 

  • Blue and Yellow striped school tie 

  • Royal blue V-neck sweatshirt or cardigan – plain or with the embroidered school logo

  • White polo shirt (optional - summer wear only, instead of the shirt and school tie) 

  • Blue and white gingham dress (optional - summer wear only)

If watches are worn to school, they will have to be removed for PE lessons. We cannot be held responsible for their safe keeping.

​

One small pair of stud earrings is allowed, but we do encourage parents to remove them on days when their child has swimming or PE.

​

Any clothing required for religious purposes should be in Balfour Junior school colours (royal blue, yellow, white, black or grey)

All uniform items should be clearly named with the child’s name and class.
