Some families may be eligible for a school clothing grant. Applications should be directed to your Area Education Office.
Please could you ensure that all of your child’s clothing is clearly marked with their name.
Pupils should not wear jewellery to school unless it is for strict religious or medical purposes. Jewellery can present safety issues for pupils particularly during PE activities.
