School uniform

Westcott Primary School has a strict uniform policy and all pupils must wear the correct clothing. This policy is strongly supported by the stakeholders and parents of the school. The school colours are white and blue.

All uniform can be with or without school logo. Uniform can be bought widely and does not have to be bought from a specific retailer.

PE & sports kit
It is important that children also wear the appropriate PE kit. On PE days, children come to school in their PE kit.

We do ask for reasons of health and safety that the wearing of jewellery is kept to a minimum. A wristwatch (no smart watches) and stud type earrings may be worn if you consider the child old enough to take responsibility for them (both of these must be removed for PE). No other items of jewellery should be worn

All uniform with the school logo is available to order direct from the supplier –
