Uniform

At Queen's Park, we believe that our simple uniform helps to create a sense of belonging and promotes a sense of community.

Children will be reminded in assemblies and in class about the requirements regarding dress.

Uniform Expectations

  • Navy blue sweatshirt, cardigan or jumper with or without school logo

  • Plain black trousers, shorts or skirt (no denim)

  • Plain white polo shirt

  • Navy blue and white checked summer dress

  • Black shoes or trainers (a small logo is acceptable e.g. a Nike tick). These must be sensible and suitable for school - no backless shoes, crocks, flip-flops, etc. Please ensure they are suitable for running on the playground surface.

In the summer, children may wish to wear sandals and that is fine. However, they must have a back strap and buckles to ensure they are stable and stay on their feet.

PE and Sports Kit Expectations

Year Reception to year 4 must bring their PE kit into school and change for PE before their lesson. Years 5 and 6 may wear their PE kit to school on their PE days. These will be communicated with parents at the start of each half-term.

  • Plain white t-shirt

  • Black jogging bottoms or shorts

  • Trainers or plimsolls

Children should change for PE. As a national curriculum subject, children will go outside in less favourable weather so it is important that they have a separate PE kit so that they can change back into their dry and warm uniform.

 

Jewellery and Accessories Expectations

Children may wear 1 small stud in one or both ears.

A simple headband may be worn to keep your child's hair off their face. Headbands with ears or any other additional feature will need to be removed before coming into school.

Hair longer than shoulder length must be tied up.

Children can wear a digital or analogue watch to tell the time.

For safeguarding purposes, please do not send your child in with a smart watch. These are not permitted in school.

Halo Code

Our school champions the right of staff and students to embrace all Afro-hairstyles. We acknowledge that Afro-textured hair is an important part of our Black staff and students’ racial, ethnic, cultural, and religious identities, and requires specific styling for hair health and maintenance.

We welcome Afro-textured hair worn in all styles including, but not limited to, afros, locs, twists, braids, cornrows, fades, hair straightened through the application of heat or chemicals, weaves, wigs, headscarves, and wraps.

At this school, we recognise and celebrate our staff and students’ identities. We are a community built on an ethos of equality and respect where hair texture and style have no bearing on anyone's ability to succeed.

 

Lost Property

Every week, we find multiple items of clothing across the school. Please label all items of clothing so that we can ensure it is returned to your child.
