School Uniform

General

• Children are required to wear sensible flat black shoes (no trainers).
• During the summer months, school shoes should be worn with socks, as open-toed shoes, sandals and canvas shoes are not suitable for playtimes in school.
• Jewellery should not be worn to school. Children are only permitted to wear small plain stud earrings and they must be able to remove them themselves for PE lessons or not wear them at all on PE lesson days.
• Nail varnish is not permitted in school.
• The children may wear a watch when they can tell the time.
• Transfer tattoos are not encouraged.
• Please name all of your child’s clothing - preferably with sewn labels.

We use Corporate Tiger as our school uniform provider.

Pre-loved uniform shop

FORS (Friends of Rattesden School) run an extensive pre-loved uniform sale at the school. This is to:

• help all families get school uniform at a reduced price
• provide a way for parents to pass on items they can no longer use
• raise money for the school to purchase uniform for those in need
• promote a culture of reuse and mend

FORS are aiming to hold sales at various times and locations throughout the year and will inform you of the details once they’ve been finalised. Uniform is available at other times in the year if the need arises - please ask the school office.

We are always happy to receive any clean, preloved uniform, that’s in a saleable condition. This can be both school branded and non branded items. Trousers/skirts/dresses/polos/jumpers/cardigans/pe kits etc. Any uniform that isn’t saleable will be recycled.

Uniform can be passed on to Sophie Seward, (Mollie and Max's Mum) or to the school office.
