Uniform Expectations
Uniform List for Mainstream Pupils
At Northwood Community Primary School we believe it is important to maintain high standards of personal appearance and that our pupils always look smart. We also believe we should support our parents by ensuring the costs of uniform are as low as possible. This is why many items are plain and do not require the school badge emblem. If you have any queries regarding the school uniform please contact the school.
Uniform:
- White polo shirt (this must be a polo shirt and not a standard shirt, the polo shirt does not need to have the school badge emblem)
- Grey or black skirt or trousers (plain in colour with no logos)
- Purple sweatshirt or cardigan with school badge emblem
- Summer term only - purple and white checked dress
- White or grey socks
Footwear:
- School shoes or trainers must be plain, black (or white in Summer term) with no coloured laces/markings/stitching or obvious logos.
- A change of shoes can be brought for playtimes, these can be trainers of any colour.
- Pupils will be required to bring a change of footwear during Autumn and Spring terms if they wish to access the school playing fields or forest areas during break or lunchtimes.
- Boots are not permitted for school. If pupils want to wear these in the winter, they can change into their shoes once in school.
