School Uniform & PE Kit Requirements

In line with Government policy to keep school uniforms affordable, we have restricted our required branded items to three core pieces: the Presdales school jumper, the PE skort or shorts, and the PE half-zip sweatshirt. All other items can be purchased from standard retailers.

Indoors

Presdales School Jumper (Branded – Core Item 1)
Blouse – Short-sleeved, open-necked white blouse with flat revers
Skirt – Simple dark navy box-pleated skirt. It must sit no more than 2 inches above the knee and must not be rolled up at the top
Trousers – A pair of tailored navy trousers.
Socks/Tights – Navy or black tights, or short white socks. If wearing trousers, black socks must be worn.
Please note – For hygiene reasons, wearing no socks at all is unacceptable.
Shoes – Black, brown, or navy low-heeled shoes. Shoes must be polishable (suede is acceptable). Trainers, boots, canvas, or fabric shoes are not acceptable (except for verified medical reasons accompanied by a doctor’s note). Visible logos on shoes are not permitted.

Outdoors

Coats – Students may wear any plain-coloured coat, provided it is undecorated. Leather or denim coats are not acceptable.

Sportswear

T-Shirt – Navy and red T-shirt with the school logo OR a plain navy polo shirt with a collar.
PE Skort or Shorts (Branded – Core Item 2)
Half-Zip Sweatshirt – Navy and red half-zip sweatshirt with the school logo (Branded – Core Item 3)

Footwear – A pair of trainers and a pair of Astro football boots.

NB All students should have a pair of shin pads and a gum shield for hockey. Students will be told when these are required (Generic).

All items of property should be clearly marked with the owner’s name.

Where the colour navy is specified, this means DARK navy.

Jewellery/Make-up/Hair

• Students who have their ears pierced may wear only a single pair of studs in the lower earlobe; there should be no facial studs or rings at all. The only ear rings permitted are those that have a butterfly back. If a student wishes to have any piercings other than a single piercing in the lower earlobe, then she will be required to remove these during school time regardless of whether the piercing has healed or not
• Students are permitted to wear a necklace
• Acrylic nails or any other type of false nails are not allowed
• Students are not allowed to wear coloured nail varnish
• No make-up should be worn by students in Years 7 and 8. Discreet natural make-up is permitted thereafter (but no eye make-up)
• Hair dyed other than a completely natural colour is unacceptable and hair below shoulder length should be tied back during practical sessions for safety reasons. Hairstyles should be appropriate for a smart office environment and must not be extreme in style or length. No shaved patterns are permitted, and the length should not be shorter than a ‘number two’
