Uniform

Further information about our uniform can be found in our Uniform Policy.
 

West Kirby Primary School’s policy on school uniform is based on the belief that school uniform; 

  • Promotes a sense of pride in our school 

  • Helps to create a sense of community and belonging towards the school 

  • Identifies the children with the school 

  • Supports our commitment to inclusion 

  • Prevents children from wearing ‘fashion clothes’ that could be distracting in class 

  • Is practical, smart and designed with health and safety in mind 

  • Is considered good value for money by most parents 

 

Our School Uniform 

We expect all our children to wear a school sweatshirt/jumper/cardigan, ideally carrying our school logo. Items with our school logo can be purchased from local uniform shops 

School uniform items can also be purchased from any high street store or supermarket. 

Children are expected to wear flat, black school shoes unless on a PE day when they will be asked to come into school in their PE kit/trainers for the whole day. 

We expect all pupils to comply with this uniform policy, which will be monitored. Any pupil who falls short of these requirements will be advised of this fact by their class teacher and given the opportunity to improve. Continued failure to comply will be brought to the attention of the Headteacher.

School Bags/Book Bags

Large bags do not need to be brought into school. There is a great shortage of space in our cloakrooms and large bags exacerbate the problem. Lunch boxes can be carried into school and the stored on class lunch trolleys.  

Book bags are available to purchase from The School Office for £5.00.
