School Uniform

Glebe School has an official school uniform, which we ask parents to conform to for children up to and including year 11. Parents/Carers facing financial difficulty over school clothes or PE/Games Kit should contact the Head Teacher or the Education Welfare Officer, who will advise in strict confidence.

There is no specific style of clothing recommended or any special shop from which to purchase the clothing. Parents are simply asked to provide the following, in accepted styles of school clothing in the school colours: -

• Plain navy blue cardigan, jumper or sweatshirt (without logos)
• Grey/black trousers or skirt
• Plain white or pale blue shirt/blouse (without logos)
• Black shoes (not trainers)

A coat/jacket is needed for every child, and parents/carers are asked to ensure their children have suitable footwear for varying weather conditions.

If children do not come to school in appropriate school uniform on any particular day, they will be required to change into uniform provided by the school. The clothing is always clean. Any child refusing to change will not be allowed into lessons and parents will be contacted.

Year 11 pupils may wear suitable non-uniform when they are in attendance at the local Colleges of Further Education on Link Courses but must wear the appropriate uniform whilst in school.

All children are expected to provide the following, in addition to the preceding guidelines on uniform:

PE/Games:

• Trainers or plimsoles
• Socks
• PSwimming costume and towel, change of underwear if desired, swimming cap for long hair

All items of clothing and kit, including the bag in which the kit is carried, must be indelibly labelled with the child's name.
