Uniform
St. Benedict’s School is proud of its children and of their appearance. We feel that a uniform helps in this, and in the sense of unity that it brings. Within reasonable limitations and common sense, school uniform is compulsory.
The uniform varies between Summer and Winter months. As you would expect, winter uniform is generally worn in the autumn and spring terms, the summer uniform in the summer term until 1st October, all subject to the vagaries of British climate of course.
All items of clothing should be clearly marked with the child’s name
No jewellery is allowed for health and safety reasons. Can we please remind you that all hair that can be tied back, should be tied back. Gel should not be worn. Boys’ hair should be kept tidy too, not longer than the shirt collar. No hair dye, no indention's.
If the weather is very hot in the summer, pupils will be given permission to take off their ties but they must be put back on again as they leave school. We encourage children to wear a sun hat - NO flat peaked hats are allowed.
Only Y6 pupils are allowed school bags. Each child should have a book bag. These can be bought from the office.
School uniform is available from Uniformbase
Winter Uniform 1st October to End of Spring Term.
