Secondary PE uniform

Sometimes pupils are allowed to wear their PE uniform on their way to or from school (after a match, KS4 on PE days). For this reason, pupils must wear the uniform listed below at all times. Parents may be contacted and pupils may be sent home if they are incorrectly dressed.

With the colder months in mind in the Autumn/Spring term, plain navy tracksuit bottoms (no big branding), school fleece, and suitable trainers for all types of indoor and outdoor sport are recommended.

In the Winter we advise that pupils wear a navy blue long sleeve top underneath their PE T-shirt.
