Our uniform is supplied by Valentino Schoolwear. Valentino’s are a major shop and web based provider who already cater for some of the local schools. Uniform can be purchased online, in store or by phone. Further information can be found at: https://www.valentinoschoolwear.com/.

Please ensure all items of school uniform and equipment are clearly labelled with your child's name. If you would like to order name labels from Stikins and quote our school ID 3307 the Friends of Busbridge Junior School will receive 30% commission on your order. Please click on the Stikins link below to be directed to their website.

We understand that there may be some exceptional and unavoidable situations where children may have to come to school without a part of their school or PE uniform (lost or damaged). We do ask the parents/carers to contact the school on the day to confirm the reason either by phone, letter or email.

Jewellery

All earrings and piercings should be taken out prior to PE lessons and other sporting events (e.g. Sports Day). If a child has new piercings and cannot take them out during the healing stage (usually 6 weeks) the child will be able to take part in sporting activities if the earring front and back is covered with a plaster. Please note that only plain stud earrings may be worn. Plasters should be put on at home, and the child can wear plasters all day at school. Our school staff will not supply plasters or apply plasters.

To avoid extra hassle with plasters and PE, the school strongly recommends that children still have their ears pierced over the school summer holidays. If a child has earring piercings that have healed, the expectation is that the child either comes to school on PE days without their earrings, or they take them out themselves prior to PE. We would not expect plasters to be used in this instance.

Watches can be worn but must be named as they are also removed for PE. Fitness trackers may be worn as long as any internet capability is disabled prior to them being brought to school. There may be occasions where staff ask children to remove these for safety reasons. School cannot accept any liability for the loss of or damage to these watches. Children are strictly forbidden from using any photo or video functions on these devices whilst at school. Therefore, smart watches such as Apple watches are not to be worn by children in school.

Nail Varnish/ Make up
Nail varnish should not be worn during the school day and should be removed before coming to school if worn for a special occasion outside of school. Make up is not to be worn at school by pupils.

Hair
Long hair should be tied back at all times during the school day. Long hair is defined as hair that is long enough to be tied back.
