School Uniform

Our Governing Body has approved a school uniform for the children attending Paisley Primary School. We feel it helps the children to feel part of the school and creates a pride in their appearance.

Paisley Primary uniforms can be ordered and purchased from the following website:

Winter Uniform

• Black or Grey trousers, skirt or pinafore

• White shirt, blouse or polo shirt

• Red sweatshirt, cardigan or jumper
preferably with school logo

• Black sandshoes or suitable slippers for indoor wear



Summer Uniform

• Red and white check dress or skirt

• White shirt, blouse or polo shirt

• Grey school shorts

• Black sandshoes or suitable slippers for indoor wear

Children in Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1 should bring a school bookbag to school. Space is limited in cloakrooms, so children in Key Stage 2 are encouraged not to bring large outdoor bags, (i.e. Gola bags), for use in the cloakroom. If you have any enquiries about school uniform, please see Mrs. Mould at the school office, who will be pleased to help.



PE Kit

Children will need a plain, white T shirt and navy or black shorts. A tracksuit top with long sleeves and leggings are also permissable for outdoor PE sessions during cooler weather. Unless outdoors, children will do PE bare foot, as this improves the grip needed on apparatus, causing fewer accidents.

Suitable footwear should be worn for outdoor PE sessions and sports days. If a child does not bring PE kit, school PE kit will be provided in order to take part in the lesson.



Jewellery

For health and safety reasons the only items of jewellery permitted are stud earrings and a watch. All other items must be removed before school. For PE, stud earrings must be removed. The child must be able to do this independently. If you are considering having your child’s ears pierced, please try to do this at the start of the summer holiday, as this would allow sufficient healing time before the start of the autumn term. Children not taking part in PE due to earrings or other medical reasons will be set written and/or pictorial tasks to record the PE session taking place.



Lost Property

Please write your child’s name on all items of clothing brought to school. This won’t stop it getting lost but it will, hopefully, find its way back quicker!

Occasionally, items do get lost or misplaced. The school accepts no liability for lost, misplaced or damaged items. Children should not bring their own play equipment or personal effects to school. We have plenty of play equipment for playtimes and lunchtimes.

Money, other than dinner money or to settle payments, should not be brought to school. If brought to school by mistake, this should be brought to the school office for safekeeping and collection at 3pm.



Mobile Phones

We do not allow mobile phones during school hours. If a child comes to school with a mobile phone for emergency use, (i.e. walking home unaccompanied from school), the phone and any associated hardware, (i.e. headphones), must be brought to the school office at the start of every day and collected at 3:00pm.

The school accepts no responsibility for any lost, misplaced or damaged mobile phones and associated hardware.
