Daily Life at Stanningely

SCHOOL HOURS

Please arrive between 8. 40 a.m. and 8.45 a.m. 

It is better to be late than to take a day off! Children who arrive after their class has gone into assembly, should come to the front door to sign in at the office. Children can enter their classroom as soon as the doors are opened at 8.40am. This avoids congestion in the cloakrooms and encourages a calm start to the day. Adults can also have a quick chat with school adults if they need to. Doors will be closed at 8.50am, after this time children will have to go and sign in late at the office.

School Dress Code

At Stanningley Primary School, we encourage a sense of pride and belonging. Our school dress code helps to create a calm, focused learning environment and supports a collective working atmosphere.

We ask parents and carers to ensure that children wear appropriate school clothing each day.

Everyday School Uniform

• Navy blue jumper, sweatshirt or cardigan

• Black or dark grey trousers, skirts or shorts (no jeans please)

• White, red, navy or pale blue polo shirts (with a collar), or plain white shirts/blouses

• Grey pinafore dresses are also suitable

• In warmer months, girls may wear a red or blue checked school summer dress

Footwear

• Indoor pumps are required for use inside the classrooms. These can be bought easily from local supermarkets.

• Outdoor shoes must be flat, with a back, and suitable for playtimes and daily outdoor activity.
  (Open-toed sandals, crocs, or shoes with heels are not permitted.)

P.E. Kit

• Plain black shorts or joggers (no logos)

• Plain white round-neck t-shirt (no logos)

• Outdoor trainers suitable for running and sport

• All children are provided with a school P.E. hoodie, which is kept in school

• Children in Years 1–6 should come to school already dressed in their P.E. kit on their P.E. days

• Year 3 children will also require a swimming kit during the swimming term

Hair

• Hairstyles should be smart and appropriate for school

• Short hairstyles should be of one length with no patterns or lines shaved in

• Hair must not be dyed or coloured

• Long hair must be tied back for safety

• Hair accessories (bands, bobbles, ribbons) should match uniform colours: red, navy, pale blue, royal blue (Y6 only), or white

Jewellery and Watches

• Children may wear one pair of small stud earrings only

• Earrings must be removed on P.E. days. If this isn’t possible, they must be covered with tape

• Watches may be worn if they are not a distraction to learning and must be removed for P.E.

• Smart watches (e.g. Apple Watches) are not permitted, as they can access the internet

Nail Varnish

• Children should not wear nail varnish in school

Labelling Clothing and Equipment

Please ensure all uniform and personal items are clearly labelled with your child’s name.
