We expect our children to wear school uniform. It is simple, practical and available from most stores at reasonable prices. We sell school branded cardigans and sweatshirts, as well as book bags, PE bags and backpacks (for Key Stage 2 children only) from the school office during school hours (or once you have started at Paddox you can order online via our payment app and website, School Money).
For safety reasons children should not wear rings, necklaces or bracelets at school. Children with pierced ears should wear studs.
No nail varnish or nail extensions to be worn.
We believe in celebrating individuality and self-expression. Hair colour and styles are a personal choice, and we do not stipulate specific regulations. We understand that our uniform fosters a strong sense of community and identity, uniting us all. While personal style is encouraged, we kindly ask that children respect the school’s overall decorum and values.
Our school uniform is:
- Maroon jumper, cardigan or school sweatshirt (this does not have to be branded with the school logo)
- White blouse, shirt or polo shirt
- Black or grey trousers/skirt
- Black, white or grey socks/tights
- Sensible dark shoes, flat ankle boots or black trainers (trainers must not have any obvious logos on them).
With the option in summer of:
- White short sleeved shirts or t-shirts
- Black or grey shorts
- Black, white or grey socks
- Maroon and white check dresses.
Our PE uniform is:
- White t-shirt (plain, no logos)
- Black shorts
- Black or grey jogging bottoms
- Black or grey sweatshirt
- Trainers (pumps are not required)
- Team events will require a plain blue, green, red or yellow t-shirt (depending on their designated school team).
Currently, children come into school wearing their PE uniform on their designated PE days (with the exception of Reception).
For safety reasons, hair that touches the shoulders should be worn up for PE.
If your child needs to bring a mobile phone to school, these should not be used within the school grounds.
All mobile devices must be handed into class teacher (Year 6) or into the school office (Year 5) and collected at the end of the day.
Any other devices that are able to connect to the internet, receive messages and/or take photographs are not permitted within school.
