School Uniform

We ask all parents/carers to support the school by encouraging your child(ren) to wear the agreed dress code and the wearing of our school colours. The wearing of a school uniform/ colours helps promote the identity of the school in the local community and helps create an ethos of sharing and pride in the school. In addition, the wearing of a uniform helps towards increasing the protection of all pupils. 

The wearing of a uniform helps staff and the pupils to distinguish between who belongs to the school and those who may be visitors. This enables staff to approach and identify visitors more readily and helps in trying to offer a safer environment for pupils and teachers alike. Equality of opportunity is an important aspect of the life of the school. As a school we take into account the ‘Cost of a School Day’, and as a result have no expectations that uniforms must have the Glenlee Logo. Uniform may consist of the following: 

• A plain yellow/ white polo shirt 

• A plain black/ grey jumper/ tank top 

• A white shirt/ tie 

• Black school trousers/ skirt/ leggings 

• Yellow school summer dress 

• Soft indoor shoes 

• Appropriate Footwear to play outdoors

There are forms of dress which are unacceptable in all schools such as: 

• the wearing of football colours 

• clothing with slogans that may cause offence (anti-religious, symbolism or political slogans) 

• clothing which advertises alcohol, tobacco or drugs 

• clothing which can be deemed unsuitable in terms of health and safety grounds such as shell suits, combat style clothing, dangling earrings, loose fitting clothes particularly in practical classes 

• articles of clothing that could be deemed to inflict damage on other pupils or be used by others to do so
