School Uniform
School uniform creates a sense of community and equality in a school environment, placing children on a level playing field and developing a sense of pride. Every child needs to wear uniform.
This year, we have changed the uniform. However, this will not be an immediate change for all but will be phased in over three years so parents that have the old uniform can continue to use it from September 2022 up until August 2025.
The new uniform is as follows:
Royal blue school sweater/cardigan with logo
Pale blue/white polo shirt either with or without the school logo
Grey skirt/pinafore/trousers or shorts
Blue gingham dress
Black shoes or trainers
Dark grey or black leggings may be worn by girls under skirts instead of tights in cold weather
White, dark grey or black socks and tights
Small stud earrings
A watch if desired
PE Kit
White t-shirt (plain or with logo),
Plain navy shorts/PE skirt
A pair of jogging bottoms
Sweater/hoodie.
Black pumps for indoor use
Trainers for outdoor use.
For health and safety reasons long hair needs to be tied back and earrings removed. We are not allowed to assist in the removal of earrings and if they cannot be removed independently, unfortunately children will not be allowed to take part in the PE lesson.
Ordering of School Uniform.
Deepcar St John's uniform supplier is a Sheffield based company called School Trends. The use of this company is advantageous to parents as uniform can be ordered at any point throughout the school year.
It is possible to order uniform as and when you require by ordering directly through the School Trends on line ordering facility at; https://www.schooltrends.co.uk
They aim for orders to be delivered within 14 days of the order being received and the payment made.
The following are not permitted:
Tracksuit bottoms
Patterned tights or clothing
Denim
Navy cycling shorts for daily uniform
Leggings (worn alone with no skirt or dress)
Strappy shoes/sandals/crocs
Overly inappropriate head wear
Hoop or dangly earrings
Bracelets/necklaces
Please ensure all items of clothing and belongings are clearly labelled, as identification can be very difficult.
Children losing an item of clothing should try to find it straight away. It is much easier to find something on the day on which it has been lost. Parents can accompany their child either before or after school to have a look in the school's lost property box for missing items.
At the end of each half term, all lost property will be displayed.
