Here at St Michael's, pupils are expected to be smart at all times, wear their uniform with pride, and remember that they are ambassadors for the school.
School uniform plays a key role in promoting pride, self-confidence, and a feeling of belonging within the student body. These factors contribute to children's well-being, removing the additional pressures of deciding what to wear and added stress of meeting the expectations of their peers.
We request that parents/carers do their utmost to avoid placing their child in a compromising position by ignoring the dress code.
Our school uniform requirements:
Black or grey trousers, shorts, skirt, or pinafore dress (no jogging bottoms, leggings or jeans)
White shirt or polo shirt
Tie (these can be purchased via the Arbor account and picked up from the office)
Purple V-Neck jumper, sweatshirt or cardigan (no hoodies)
Purple Fleece jacket (optional)
Black or grey tights or socks
Purple gingham summer dress (optional)
Summer cap (optional)
School Shoes
Black flat shoes (trainers, boots and high heels not permitted)
If parents are in any doubt about the suitability of school shoes, parents must seek advice from the school before purchasing them. Trainers are not allowed except to change into at breaktime or for Physical Education. If children need to wear alternative footwear as a temporary measure, this should be put in writing by the parent and handed to the school.
Jewellery:
One pair of stud earrings may be worn – no other piercings are permitted.
If you wish to have your child’s ears pierced, please do so at the start of the summer break, as pupils are not permitted to wear earrings (or any jewellery) during PE of any kind. All must be removed, without exception, for Health & Safety reasons.
A smart and sensible wrist watch may be worn.
Pupils will be advised that jewellery is their personal responsibility and not that of the school. Lost or damaged items will not be refunded. All jewellery must be removed during practical lessons, including PE lessons and science experiments.
Physical Education (PE)
Children are expected to wear their PE Uniform to school on days they have timetabled PE. We expect them to wear their school jumper/cardigan or fleece whilst walking to school. A coat can be worn should the weather suffice.
Black PE shorts
Purple PE T-shirt (ideally with school logo)
PE bag
Trainers for PE
Black jogging track suit or similar for winter activities outside (no large writing or symbols)
Children should come to school with their earrings removed on PE days (not taped up).
