\*In 2023, parents, children, staff and governors were consulted about the introduction of a school tracksuit.  All groups agreed to the introduction. The tracksuit will be worn to school on days when the children have PE, swimming and forest school.  On the days the children do not have those activities they will be expected to wear their normal school uniform.

Jewellery

Watches and stud earrings can be worn.

No smart watches, necklaces or hooped earrings to be worn in school.

During PE, no jewellery is to be worn.  Children must be able to remove stud earrings themselves and put them back in.  No plasters can be applied. This is for health and safety reasons.

Hair

- Hair clips/slides must be in line with school colours and discrete
- Extreme hairstyles are not allowed
- No shaved hair below a number 2 blade. No lettering, lines, patterns, symbols or patches
- No hair colours that cannot be grown naturally
- No two-tone hair colours or dipped hair
- No extensions/false hair pieces
- Full head plaits are acceptable but beads cannot be used to hold the plait in place.

We also request that any hair longer than shoulder length is tied back for health and safety and to stop the spread of head lice.

Makeup

No make-up or nail varnish is allowed

Eyebrows are to be natural

If the school uniform rules are broken school will work with the parent in the first instant to support in making changes so that children do have the correct uniform and hair in accordance to the policy.  If parents are not willing to work with the school, school will take further action in the form of a consequence.  The headteacher will use their professional judgement in deciding on what that may be.

Parents, children and staff members were consulted in 2020/21 about the school uniform.  The uniform has been chosen because it can be purchased from any local supermarket with no badge or if parents prefer a version with the school badge it can be obtained from touchline uniform shop:

https://www.touchline-embroidery.com/shop-by-school/st-edmunds-catholic-primary-school-skelmersdale

If parents would like to purchase a pre-loved uniform, they can either contact, Skelmersdale FUSS or discuss requirements with Mrs Wild.
