“The more we expect of ourselves and one another,
the more we can achieve”
School Uniform
We at Staplehurst School pride ourselves on the smart appearance of all children and we are grateful for parental support in ensuring children are always smartly dressed. Our uniform is both economical and practical and adds to the ethos of the school.
Where to Buy
Standard uniform items, such as skirts, trousers, socks and shoes, are available from many high street stores. Items specific to Staplehurst School are available from the school office.
Accessories
For safety reasons, children are not allowed to wear jewellery to school. Children with pierced ears may wear plain studs only, as long as they are able to remove them for taking part in sports. Watches may be worn by children in Key Stage 2 (Years 3 – 6) as long as they are named and do not have an alarm. There is, however, a clock in every room at the school.
Please clearly label all your child’s uniform and possessions with his or her name! The school or KCC are not responsible for children’s personal property. The naming of items is the parents’ responsibilty. Woven name tags are available to order from the school office.
Summer and Winter Uniforms
Generally, children wear summer uniform from Easter to the end of the summer term. Winter uniform is worn from September through to the beginning of the Easter holidays. These dates are weather-dependant and at the Headteacher’s discretion. Parents are reminded of the change from summer to winter uniform and vice versa via the school newsletter.
