School Uniform
All children in our school are expected to wear a uniform. This enables everyone to have the same standard of dress and shows equality throughout the school.
We are proud of our school uniform which consists of the following:
- Gold sweatshirts (Reception to Year 5);
- Grey sweatshirts (Year 6);
- Red/White polo shirt or blouse;
- Grey/black trousers/dress shorts/skirt/pinafore;
- Red gingham dresses can be worn in the summer months
From September 2025, we will be changing our school uniform from gold to red sweatshirts (Nursery - Year 5)
The full range of uniform can be purchased from Track Sportswear Ltd, Gledstone House, 26 Newmarket Street, Consett, DH8 5LQ You will be able to order online for home delivery / shop collection from Track Sportswear.
This is a local supplier, so you will be able to pop in and make sure you are ordering the correct size, and collect direct from their shop in Consett, which will save on delivery charges.

Shoes
Shoes should be sensible, sturdy and safe for school. Many types of footwear (especially girls’ fashion shoes with high heels) are a source of potential accidents in school, especially in a playground situation.
Book and PE Bags
Each child will need a book bag, clearly marked with their name, to hold a school reading book and keep all books flat. PE kit should be kept in a draw string PE bag and may be left in school for each half term. The bags can be obtained from uniform suppliers.
Hair
Long hair should be tied back. Dyed hair, or the ‘crop circle’ style or patterns shaved into the hair are not considered appropriate for a primary school setting.
Jewellery
No jewellery other than a watch or school badge may be worn. Children are not permitted to wear any style of earrings.
