School Uniform

We have a school uniform which all children are expected to wear.  We ask for your support in ensuring that your child has the appropriate uniform, as it creates a sense of belonging and supports us in maintaining a high standard of behaviour.  (Please see the visual guides below). 

Please ensure that your child’s uniform, coat, bag, wellies, water bottle and any other clothing items are clearly labelled with their name.

  Jewellery

  Jewellery is not allowed to be worn at school except subtle earrings (e.g. one stud in each ear – hoops are not allowed).  A watch or step counter is allowed. Any device that connects to the internet (eg a smart watch) or that can record (including taking photos) is not allowed for safeguarding reasons; such items can be handed over at the start of each day.  Exceptions in terms of jewellery may be made due to religious reasons, please check with the Headteacher.

   

  Personal Property

  Please ensure that your child does not bring valuable items (e.g. toys, devices) to school with them without prior permission.  Mobile phones are not permitted in school and must be handed in to the office on arrival and collected at the end of the school day.  Please note that we cannot accept responsibility for any lost items. 

   

  Hair

  Please ensure that hair is suitably cut for school. Shoulder length hair must be tied back away from the face with a suitable plain hair band.

PTA Uniform Exchange Schemes

Our PTA run a local uniform exchange scheme for Thorner school parents on Facebook, through this scheme you can donate unwanted uniform and get good quality second-hand uniform for your child.
