Uniform & Appearance

We believe that the wearing of school uniform contributes to a sense of belonging to the school community and helps to develop a sense of pride in the school.


You can buy uniform with the school logo from Cwtch Designs which is located at The Institute Building in Crumlin Square - https://www.cwtchdesigns.co.uk/ or 01495 243803


Alternatively you may wish to purchase a uniform without the school logo. Most major supermarkets will stock suitable wear.

PE Kit​

All children are legally required to undertake physical education and games and, therefore, need clothing for these activities which are different from their daily wear. The correct dress for each activity will go a long way to creating the positive attitude to physical activities which we hope to encourage in our pupils.

  • Black leggings, joggers or shorts (please dress according to the season)

Example leggings

  • Round neck/Crew neck Red T-shirt (this needs to be a plain t-shirt with/ without the school logo - no football tops etc)

Example PE T-shirt

  • Plain daps or trainers

Example Plain Trainers


Children should have their kit in school on PE days and will change for their PE session at the appropriate time (except Dosbarth Pinc who will wear their kit to school and you will be notified of the day).

PLEASE, PLEASE help us by marking ALL your children’s clothes and personal items using a permanent marker (biro washes away). School will hold no responsibility for lost, unnamed clothing.


We also have a few rules regarding the suitability of certain items of “clothing” because they are a potential safety hazard.

No jewellery is to be worn except for a single pair of stud earrings or a wrist watch . In PE jewellery is a particular source of danger and must be removed before children can take part in the lessons.
