    Hilperton's School Uniform

    We believe that school uniform is important because;

    • It contributes to a sense of belonging an fosters a feeling of pride in our school.
    • It takes away the need for children to decide what to wear on a daily basis.
    • Children need not be worried about issues of fashion or competitive dressing.
    • It promotes equality of opportunity.
    • It looks smart and makes a firm distinction between home and school, promoting a more purposeful attitude to work and learning.

    We ask that all children wear the uniform and we encourage them to maintain a good standard of clean and tidy dress. Please ensure that all items are named. Teachers are provided with a black permanent marker and may name items that do not have a named label in.
