Infants – Reception, Years 1 & 2

Guidance on appearance

Children may not wear jewellery except small plain studs (no hoops) if they have pierced ears. Earrings must either be removed or taped over during all P.E. and other sporting activities including swimming. Teachers are not permitted to remove earrings.

No make-up of any kind, including nail varnish, is permitted – nail varnish remover may be used to remove varnish worn in school. False nails are not permitted.

Hair that is shoulder length or longer should be tied up. Hair ties, clips and bands must be plain (navy blue, white or neutral) and not fashion items. Extreme hairstyles are not appropriate for school. The use of styling products should be kept to a minimum, and children should not have decorative patterns cut into their hair or have hair coloured or dyed. Braids or extensions should be natural hair coloured.
