It is extremely important for pupils to wear the correct school uniform.

At Manor House School, it is felt that uniform gives pupils a sense of identity and pride in their school.

The uniform enhances the appearance of pupils and, in turn, cements the reputation of the school.

Wearing a uniform also helps to give pupils a sense of purpose when they get ready for school in the morning.

Just as importantly, uniform helps parents and teachers to avoid the problem of what is and what is not suitable attire for school.

Parents should only purchase uniform from recommended suppliers. The school reserves the right to refuse permission for unofficial items of school uniform to be worn.

Parents must use their discretion to decide whether pupils should wear uniform items for warm or cold weather. There is no fixed date for the wearing of summer and winter uniform.

All clothing worn at school must be clearly marked with name tapes.
