Here at Langham Academy, pupils are expected to be smart at all times, wear their uniform with pride, and remember that they are ambassadors for the school. School uniforms play a key role in promoting pride, self-confidence, and a feeling of belonging within the student body. These factors contribute to children's well-being, removing the additional pressures of deciding what to wear and added stress of meeting the expectations of their peers. We request that parents/carers do their utmost to avoid placing their child in a compromising position by ignoring the dress code.
Our school uniform requirements:
Grey skirt / pinafore / trousers (no leggings, jeans or cycling shorts permitted)
White collared shirt or polo shirt
Red school sweatshirt or red jumper/cardigan (no hoodies)
Fleece jacket (optional for outdoor use only)

NO child should wear jewellery in school. hair styles should be sensible with no pattern designs if they are short. No nail varnish should be worn.

If parents are in any doubt about the suitability of school shoes, parents must seek advice from the school before purchasing them. Trainers or plimsolls are not allowed except to change into at breaktime or for Physical Education. If children need to wear alternative footwear as a temporary measure, this should be put in writing by the parent and handed to the school.
