Athersley North Primary School
School Uniform
Uniform
We believe that a consistent school uniform policy is vital to promote the ethos of the school, encouraging a sense of community and belonging for all pupils, regardless of their protected characteristics or socio-economic circumstances.
We aim to ensure that our approach to school uniform is consistent, fair and inclusive. That is not only reflects the needs of all pupils, it is affordable, and does not place an unreasonable burden on families.
We believe that pupils learn most effectively and achieve their best outcomes when they are comfortable, feel equal to their peers, and dressed in a way that sets an appropriate tone for education.
Our school uniform does not have to be branded.
There is no expectation that uniform is purchased at a specific retailer. We actively encourage the use of second hand retailers.
