At Coppull Primary School and Nursery, we want to uphold and maintain high standards in all areas of school life including the presentation of our pupils. We have high aspirations for all, not just academically, but also in their attitude and presentation. For this reason, we place great importance on uniform and general appearance.
School Uniform
Our uniform consists of a white polo shirt, grey trousers/skirt/pinafore and a red sweatshirt or cardigan. Children should wear sensible and appropriate black shoes during the school day. If they wish to come to school in boots or similar in bad weather, please ensure they bring their school shoes to change into once they arrive. All children require a warm winter coat (ideally with a hood) to wear at break time and lunch time. If children bring hats, scarves and gloves, please ensure, as with all other uniform, that they are named.
PE Kit
On a PE day, children should come to school wearing either a white PE t-shirt or their white polo shirt, their red cardigan or jumper, trainers and black or grey shorts/joggers/leggings. Earrings are not permitted to be worn for PE. Children are not permitted to wear jewellery in PE lessons. This includes earrings and watches. Please ensure that ears are pierced at the beginning of the summer holidays as we are no longer allowed to cover earrings with plasters.
Hair
Long hair should be tied back at all times and we ask that hair bobbles, clips, bow, headbands and other accessories are sensible and discreet and only in school colours. Large and garish hair accessories are not suitable for school so we ask that children refrain from wearing these. Short hair should be in a sensible style and we ask that tram lines and similar are not cut into hair during term time.
Jewellery
In addition to earrings as mentioned above, children are not permitted to wear jewellery to school. Sensible watches are allowed but must be removed for PE. Nail varnish and false nails are not permitted to be worn in school along with make-up and tinted lip balm. We ask that all parents and carers ensure that children adhere to our uniform policy as we want to encourage all children to uphold high standards so that we have consistency across school for all of our pupils.
