Uniform

OXCLOSE COMMUNITY SCHOOL operates a strict uniform policy, for all year groups, which is as follows:

Day wear:

Black or  sweatshirt with school logo, a white, black or red polo shirt with the school logo, together with black trousers or skirt and black sensible shoes (not trainers).

Sweatshirts and polo shirts with embroidered OXCLOSE SCHOOL LOGO are on sale from the school. Please place a priority order to ensure supply.

The Governors Policy states that certain jewellery is not appropriate to wear in school and whilst we WILL accept one pair of earrings and a watch; we do ask pupils not to wear long necklaces, numerous rings and earrings, chokers etc. Accidents can and do happen in busy schools and some jewellery really does pose a safety threat to the wearer and others. As parents, you will no doubt be aware of the current trend in body piercing and we would ask for your support in ensuring that pupils do NOT come to school wearing, for example, nose, lip, tongue and eyebrow jewellery.

PE:

We do not specify particular colours or types of PE kit for students. What is required is a change of clothing appropriate to the activity being undertaken. Training shoes for inside use must be mud free. Bermuda shorts are not acceptable.

 

Equipment

We also expect our students to come to school equipment with the following:

Pen, Pencil, Ruler and an Eraser

The following items would be useful, but are not essential for every lesson:

Calculator, Rough Notebook, Colouring Pencils / Fibre Pens, Compass, Protractor / Angle Measurer
