Uniform
Uniform is worn at Turnditch Church of England Primary School to develop a sense of pride in being a member of the whole school community. The Governing Body and Head teacher has agreed the uniform in consultation with pupils and parents/carers.
We trust that parents & carers will engage with the school and support us in ensuring children wear a smart uniform.

All watches must be removed for physical education and other related activities. Since removal of ear studs can be a problem for some children, we ask that children leave these items at home on the days when PE takes place. If a pupil does come to school with ear studs in on a PE lesson day, and they are unable to remove the studs themselves, they will not be permitted to participate in the PE lesson. Those children with long hair need to provide a suitable way of securing it for the duration of the lesson.
Please ensure that all items of uniform, PE kit and outdoor clothing (e.g. coats, gloves, etc.) are clearly labelled with your child’s name, so that owners can be easily identified if items are misplaced.
Children should wear their PE kit to school on the days their class have a PE session.
PLEASE NAME ALL ITEMS OF UNIFORM BEFORE SENDING TO SCHOOL.
Swimming
Years 2 and 3 pupils only. Swimming lessons are held at Woodlands School and pupils need to bring a one piece swimsuit, swimming hat and towel
Jewellery
Jewellery should not be worn in school. Any child with pierced ears should wear studs only and these will need to be taped or removed by the child for PE and swimming. Watches will need to be removed for P.E. and should be named and easily identified. Make-up and nail polish is not considered appropriate for school.
Art and Craft
It would be helpful if an old shirt or suitable overall could be sent to school to protect your child's clothing during these activities.
