What Uniform do the Children Wear in School?

At Horton Park, we are successful learners, confident individuals and responsible citizens. An important part of this is having the correct uniform and PE kit. Whilst it has been fantastic to see our pupils arrive dressed smartly in their uniform, I must stress the importance of all pupils abiding by our uniform policy and the expectations for how they present themselves in school. Please see the reminders below.

If there are any particular issues around uniform, such as certain items are yet to arrive or indeed any other issues, please contact your child’s class teacher in the first instance.

Please Note: 

• Your child/ren may come dressed in their PE clothing on the day they have PE. There is no need to bring their school uniform in a bag as they will remain in their PE kits for the entire day. 
• If your child brings in a packed lunch, water will be provided in school and they do not need to bring in any drinks from home.

Required Uniform:  

• Royal Blue Sweatshirt or cardigan with logo (available from Natasha’s school wear)
• White plain polo shirt
• Grey skirt / pinafore dress / trousers or grey shalwar kameez
• Plain black, white or blue – hijab/head scarf (optional)
• Plain, low black shoes, ankle boots or plain black trainers

Additional Options for Summer

• Blue/white dresses (small chequered)
• Grey cloth shorts
• Low Black or blue sandals – no open toes

PE Uniform

• Navy blue or black shorts
• Navy blue or black jogging bottoms / leggings
• Blue school PE t-shirt (provided by school)
• Optional white t-shirt can be worn
• Plain black trainers / black PE pumps
• School jumpers to be worn – no hoodies

Year 3 (Required Swimming Kit)

• Swimming trunks
• Swimsuit or full body swimming suit
• Towel

Jewellery

• On health and safety grounds, we only allow small stud earrings and a watch (no smart watches). No other piercings are allowed.

Hair

• For health and safety reasons, all long hair should always be tied back. Only dark coloured hair accessories should be worn. No extreme haircuts or colours e.g. train tracks, lines, patterns or hair dye

Please ensure that all items of clothing are clearly labelled with your child’s name.

A school logo is NOT essential on items. However, if you would like to purchase items with the school logo, you can do so at:

● Natasha’s, 37 West Gate, BD1 2QT

Financial hardship

We are here to support families struggling with the cost of uniform. If you require help, please come speak to us.

The school also has a stock of second-hand uniform available to families; please contact the school office for further information.

PLEASE NOTE: Families can obtain all items of uniform (other than the branded jumper/cardigan) from a wide range of retailers (including supermarkets) to allow them to seek best value for money. 

DO NOT SEND EXPENSIVE CLOTHING OR COATS INTO SCHOOL: Any property or clothing brought into school is at the parent or carers’ own risk and the school and governors can not accept responsibility for loss or damage of these items.
