At Potten End, we expect all pupils to have a clean, smart uniform each day.  We believe that by having high expectations of how they present themselves, pupils will have high personal expectations of all areas of their lives.

We encourage children to wear uniform displaying the school logo. However, we are also happy for plain royal blue cardigans or jumpers to be worn.

Should you experience financial difficulties with equipping your child with a school uniform, there is some help available. Families seeking advice should speak to the Head Teacher, who will treat the matter with the utmost confidence.
