School Uniform and School Shop
School uniform policy
At Bromsgrove, we believe that a uniform instills pride in the school and allows each student to feel part of the wider Bromsgrove family. Students are expected to wear the prescribed uniform correctly every school day between 07:00 and 15:30, except on specific designated days.
The School Shop at Windsor Park Campus is where you can purchase uniform and school supplies. It provides a quality uniform to all Bromsgrove students at both sites. The School Shop is open 07:30 to 08:00, 10:10 to 10:30 and 15:30 to 16:00, Monday to Friday. It is advisable for parents of students requiring full uniform, or those with a substantial list of items, to make an appointment by telephoning the School office.
Parents of Bromsgrove Early Years School may order their uniform requirements from the Early Years Office, for next day delivery.
At the Windsor Park campus, we expect all students to arrive in full school uniform and it is not acceptable to arrive in PE kit if you have a PE lesson that day. At the Early Years Campus, we allow students to arrive in PE kit if their first lesson of that day is PE, as this reflects the age and independence of our younger students. We believe that commonly accepted standards of modesty and neatness will ensure appropriate and non-offensive student dress in an international school setting.
- Skirts/Skorts should be knee-length throughout the school, including in the Sixth Form.
- There should be no extreme of hairstyle or colour. Hair should be smart and of the same length across the head i.e. no shaved and long parts together is acceptable. If requested by the school, a student will modify their hairstyle or colour if the Headmaster deems the style/colour to be against our guidelines.
- No patterns/designs shaved into the hair are allowed under any circumstances.
- No hair length should fall below the shirt collar for boys.
- All students at Windsor Park Campus are required to wear plain Black leather shoes only – NOT black (or any other colour) trainers.
- Students at Early Years Campus can wear Black Shoes or Black/White trainers.
- At WP Campus, students will tie their hair back as requested by teachers, for example in practical Science lessons.
- At the Early Years Campus, we request that all girls with hair longer than shoulder length tie it back.
- Girls should only wear a plain, narrow ‘alice-band’ type hair band. Hair bands should not be of a wide material bandana style, or in bright/sparkly colours, or have any additional parts sticking out of the top.
- No make-up is permitted for any student across the whole school. Students wearing make-up will be sent to their Head of Section to remove it.
- Students are permitted to wear a watch (please note that any ewatches / fitness trackers are NOT permitted, in line with our new electronic device policy). No other wristbands are allowed to be worn.
- Girls are permitted to one pair of small sleeper or stud type earrings.
- Necklaces must be worn underneath the uniform and must be removed for PE and sports ECAs (for health and safety reasons). For safety reasons, we recommend Primary students do not wear any necklaces at any time.
- No other jewelry is permitted at any time.
- All EY and Primary students must wear a cap when outside at playtime, lunchtime and during PE lessons and ECAs/clubs. Please note that if your child does not have a hat they will not be allowed to take part in the activities outside.
- We also strongly encourage Secondary students to do the same for sun safety reasons.
