We are proud of our uniform which unites us as a community and represents George Pindar School so positively. 
 
All students are expected to wear the following;
  • Plain white shirt with collar, school tie (the shirt should be buttoned to the collar and the tie knotted to the shirt collar and of a reasonable length). 

  • Black blazer with school badge.

  • A grey slipover must be worn in addition to the blazer.

  • Tie with grey/blue/gold stripes.

  • Black tailored trousers ‐ traditional style straight leg which must be loose at the ankle and not skinny fit. No pinstripes, jeans or trousers that are jean style in their appearance (i.e. patch pockets), cords, leggings/jeggings or similar, narrow legged or tracksuit style. Trousers which are skin tight are NOT acceptable. Trousers should not have large belts/buckles, brightly coloured pocket zips e.g. gold or silver, or studded/riveted pockets.

  • A pleated black skirt as an alternative to trousers (pencil / tight-fitting skirts are not acceptable).

  • Plain black flat leather or leather look shoes or plain black (no visible logos or other colour) trainers must be worn. Black leather (look) formal boots without a heel exceeding 1½” and which must fit under trousers are permitted. Shoes, trainers or boots should be fully black and have no obvious logo – NOT fashion boots, flip-flops, ‘Toms’, Vans, pumps or similar canvas/beach shoes or shoes made from fabric or sandals.
    Parents / carers should check with the school prior to purchase if unsure.

  • Socks must be plain black. When wearing the skirt, black tights should be worn. Trainer liners are not permitted.

For safety reasons, you may only wear one stud earring in each ear. No other body piercings will be allowed. You will be expected to remove piercings before arriving at the school each day; clear plastic retainers are permitted. Students who refuse to remove piercings will remain in A2S until they do.

No other jewellery may be worn although a watch is permitted. If you are found to be wearing any jewellery that is not permitted, you will be asked to remove the item(s) or be placed in A2S until you do so.

False eyelashes are not permitted. Students are expected to remove false eyelashes before arriving at school. Students who refuse to remove false eyelashes will remain in A2S until they do.

It is important that the uniform is worn correctly. Outdoor coats should be removed at the door. Blazers must be worn on corridors at all times. Shirts should be tucked in and ties should be knotted up to the neck. Hoodies must not be worn (unless they have a front vertical zip from top to bottom and are being worn as a coat).

Uniform rules apply on the journey to and from the school. Coats should be worn over and not under blazers.

Tracksuit tops, denim jackets, sweatshirts and similar are not permitted as coats.
