Uniform
At Wroughton Academies, we believe that a smart and consistent uniform contributes to a positive learning environment and helps students take pride in their appearance. Below is a comprehensive overview of our uniform policy for parents.
Uniform Requirements
General Attire
- Tops: Students are required to wear a school-branded polo shirt or a white shirt with the school logo.
- Bottoms: Trousers or skirts should be grey. Shorts are also acceptable during warmer months.
- Jumpers: A school-branded jumper or cardigan is mandatory.
Footwear
- All students must wear black shoes. Trainers or casual shoes are not permitted. This policy helps maintain a formal school environment.
Accessories
- Jewellery: Minimal jewellery is allowed. Students may wear a watch and small stud earrings, but no other accessories are permitted.
- Make-up: The use of make-up is not allowed for students. This policy ensures that all students maintain a focus on their education without distractions.
Hair and Grooming
- Haircuts should be appropriate for a school setting. Extreme hairstyles or unnatural hair colors are not permitted.
PE Kit
- For physical education, students must wear a school-branded PE kit, which includes a T-shirt, shorts, and appropriate footwear.
Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS)
Children in the EYFS are not required to wear a tie as part of their uniform. This allows for greater comfort and ease of movement for our youngest learners.
Purchasing Uniform
Uniform items can be purchased from designated suppliers or the school office. It is advisable to label all clothing with your child's name to prevent loss.
Importance of Uniform
Wearing a uniform instills a sense of belonging and community among students. It also prepares them for future educational and professional environments where dress codes may be enforced.
