UNIFORM – AUTUMN TERM 2026

In the Autumn Term, the Governing Body will be consulting with parents with a view to changing the school uniform permanently to an Active Uniform (the items currently listed as PE Kit below). Until the consultation is concluded, children have the option of wearing PE kit every day to school; or wearing the full uniform to school on days when they do not do PE and wearing PE kit to school on the days when their class is doing PE.

Uniform

• Grey skirt/pinafore/trousers/shorts
• Red polo shirt
• Red sweatshirt/cardigan/jumper
• Red/grey tights or black/grey/white socks
• Red checked dress - summer term (optional)
• Fleeces are an optional extra for use as outside jackets
• Black shoes or smart black trainers. Low heels are appropriate and open-toed sandals should not be worn, due to the possibility of accidents.
• Waterproof jacket and trousers (to be kept in school)
• Wellies (to be kept in school)

There is no requirement to wear uniform with the school logo on it and suitably coloured garments from chain stores and supermarkets are preferred. Friends of The Meads (FOTMS) have a small selection of second hand uniform which can be purchased or swapped for uniform that has been outgrown at various FOTMS events during the year.
