School Uniform

At Cranbrook, we believe wearing uniform helps children to develop a strong group identity and a sense of loyalty to their school, as well as encouraging pride in their appearance. All items should be labelled with name and class.

​

We would welcome your support in providing the following: 
 

Jade round neck sweatshirt with/without school logo or dark grey jumper or jade / dark grey cardigan
Dark grey skirt, dark grey pinafore or dark grey trousers. No joggers, jeans or leggings to be worn as trousers
White polo shirt (with or without the school logo) 
Grey socks or tights. 
In the summer months, dark grey smart shorts or a green and white striped dress with white socks, tights or leggings can be worn..  
A sun hat or cap in the summer.  
A suitable coat, weather dependent.

Sensible flat plain black shoes, trainers or boots in the winter. Flip-flops or backless sandals / shoes are not acceptable.

Children are expected to wear PE kit to School on their PE day. Indoor - T-shirt (in the colour of their class i.e. Yellow, Green, Blue or Red), black shorts and black plimsolls. Outdoor - T-shirt (as above), black shorts / black tracksuit and trainers. Without appropriate footwear, children may not be able to fully participate in PE sessions and instead would support the teacher as ref or helper.

Cranbrook PE Kit Guide

 

KS2 children will have the opportunity to participate in swimming sessions as part of the compulsory National Curriculum requirements.  To ensure the children have the best possible swimming experience parents will be asked to provide their child with the following:

         Swimming Cap – this is compulsory

·        A clean towel

·        A clean one piece swimsuit, burkini or close fitting swimming trunks (not baggy shorts with pockets)

·        Sliders or flip flops for entering and exiting the poolside

·        Goggles are optional

Children should not wear or bring jewellery to school other than small ear studs which will need to be removed or covered with tape for PE, religious jewellery and a basic watch. No other jewellery should be worn to school. Smart watches or watches with cameras, games and messaging facilities must not be worn for safeguarding reasons. 

Girls may wear conservative hair accessories in green, black or white without embellishments.

We ask that every child brings a school bag into school every day to carry their belongings (with or without the school logo).

From time to time the school will have non-school uniform days, e.g., World Book Day, Mental Health Day.  Parents will be informed in advance of these days and what theme is required.  Parents are not expected to purchase additional clothes to participate in these events.

 

We encourage parents to purchase reasonably priced items and do not advise sending children in expensive items such as designer coats. This would be at parents own risk.

Uniform without the logo can be bought from most major high street retailers at competitive prices.
