Uniform
Click on the picture below to read our School Uniform Dress Code leaflet
We believe that a school uniform is important and we have consulted with parents to ensure:
- It looks smart
- Wears well
- Contributes to a sense of belonging and community
- Gives a common purpose
- Makes children feel equal to their peers in terms of appearance
- Fosters a feeling of pride
- Is designed with health and safety in mind
- Is affordable and sustainable – there is no expectation to wear branded uniform – all itmes can be purchased from most supermarkets that sell clothes along with other clothing stores
- We have access to second hand uniform and hold a stock at school – please just ask our pastoral team in confidence
The Raynville Academy uniform is:
white or red polo shirt
grey trousers / skirt / skort / pinafore dress (not jogging bottoms – leggings can be worn under a skirt)
red cardigan / jumper with or without the school logo
summer wear:
white or red polo shirt
grey shorts / trousers
red and white checked dress
No jewellery is to be worn to school (very small studs for children with pierced ears are acceptable). Watches are acceptable at your own risk.
Shoes worn to school need to be without a heel and to have a back to them, e.g. no flip flops. If possible these should be black/ a smart, dark colour.
Children are encouraged to wear hats (named) in hot weather.
Children need a plain white or red polo shirt or t-shirt & black shorts/joggers/plain leggings for PE and a school jumper for outdoor sessions.
All clothes should be named. We make every effort to help children look after their things but we are not able to accept responsibility for lost property. There is a lost property container in each building. Unclaimed property will be disposed of at the end of each term.
