At Oldcastle School, we encourage all pupils to wear school uniform to foster a sense of community and equality. Wearing appropriate school uniform is a practical and economical choice for all families.

School Uniform

Pupils may wear the following school uniform:

• Grey or Black trousers, skirt or pinafore dress;

• Red or white polo shirts;

• Blue jumpers, cardigans or hoodies;

• In the Summer months, grey shorts or blue / red check dresses may be worn.

(Clothing items emblazoned with the school logo are available to purchase locally if you wish but are not required)

Pupils may wear dark blue, grey or black socks or tights.  White socks may be worn in the Summer. 

Dark-coloured school shoes should be worn.  Boots, backless sandals or trainers are discouraged (trainers may be worn for PE and sports activities).

PE Kit

Oldcastle Primary School's PE uniform is dark shorts, a white t-shirt and black plimsolls or trainers.  Tracksuits may be worn in the winter months.  

Expectations

Pupils are expected to dress neatly and appropriately.  

We encourage long hair to be tied back to avoid injury, and patterns shaved onto the head are considered inappropriate for school. Jewellery must not be worn to school.  If your child has pierced ears, small studs are permitted but must be removed or covered with micro-pore tape for PE. 

Smart watches are not allowed to be worn.

Nail varnish, false nails or transfers should not be worn to school.

Please label your child's school uniform items, coat, bag, lunchbox, and bottle with their first name and class. 

We offer a uniform swap shop for parents.  The uniform is free of charge and available on racks in the main reception.
