For Health & Safety reasons we discourage the wearing of any form of jewellery in school. We do however understand that parents may wish their child/ren to have their ears pierced. In these cases:

1) All earrings must be a simple stud earring-type and we only allow one piercing per ear. We ask that any piercings are carried out at the start of the summer holidays to enable the earlobe to heal over the 6 week break. If ears have been newly pierced they can be covered with micropore tape (to be provided by the parent) to prevent injury. Once the piercings have healed, earrings must be removed for all physical activity.

2) The school will not take any responsibility for lost earrings and we strongly recommend that earrings of any value are not worn in school either.

3) For all PE lessons and sporting events, including swimming, children must be able to remove earrings independently. Please note that adults cannot remove or replace earrings in a child’s ear.

Hooped earrings, dangling earrings, rings, necklaces and bracelets are not allowed in school. 

The school accepts no responsibility or liability for any lost items of jewellery.
