    School Uniform

Stour Valley Community School expects all of its students to be smartly and safely dressed. We regard it as an essential aspect of setting high expectations across the school. Our uniform identifies us as part of our school community and makes us recognisable in the wider community. 
 
Students are not permitted to deviate from the school uniform policy except in rare and exceptional circumstances. There may be medical reasons that make wearing parts of the uniform impossible. Where this is the case, any agreed changes will be as close to the formal uniform as possible and made only after a meeting with a member of Senior Leadership Team. Religious head scarves may be worn but no other religious insignia is permitted on the outside of the uniform. 
 
Our uniform policy is gender neutral.
 
Please refer to our full policy in the Policies section of the website - see link below.

The majority of our uniform can be purchased from Price and Buckland (link at bottom of the page): alternatively please contact our reception who hold a large quantity of second hand items which are available for a small donation to the school.

PE kit is expected for every PE lesson, regardless of injury or illness. It is then at the discretion of PE staff as to whether kit will be required.

All items of clothing should be named. We can highly recommend purchasing Stikins labels (printed labels that stick on, and stay on). Our unique fundraising number is 36034.

Please also note that students must not wear items of outdoor clothing inside. This includes hats, gloves and scarves. These should be left in lockers.

Students should wear a blazer at all times unless given permission not to do so by a member of staff, for example in warm weather. No denim or leather clothing should be worn.

We retain the right to send students home if they are not in full school uniform. This is made explicit to parents by means of our Home-School Agreement.
