The uniform at Cawthorne can be branded or plain. All that we ask is that your child's clothing adheres to the school colours outlined above and that you put your child’s name in all items so that these can be easily identified.
Bags
All children will be required to use a drawstring bag to keep their P.E kits in. These can be plain or have the school logo on.
Book bags are are also required. These can be plain navy blue or have the school logo on.
Older children have the option of bringing a small rucksack bag of their choice.
Watches and Jewellery
Children are allowed to wear watches in school if they wish but must take these off for P.E lessons. In line with current statutory guidance, children will not be permitted to wear any form of Smart watch. Only analogue or digital watches can be worn as outlined in our Safeguarding Policy.
Earrings (small studs only) can be worn but must be removed for P.E lessons by the child. We encourage parents to have their children’s ears pierced at the beginning of the summer holidays to ensure that they are healed in time for starting school in September.
Hair longer than shoulder length must be tied back especially for P.E on the grounds of Health and Safety.
Any jewellery of religious significance will be dealt with on an individual basis to ensure that the safety of the child is not compromised in conjunction with avoiding discrimination in line with the Equality Act 2010.
