Lavender School Uniform Expectations
At Lavender school we expect all children to wear the Lavender school uniform every day even when taking part in school-organised events outside of normal school hours.
Our school uniform looks smart and helps to create a sense of identity, community and belonging. We want all of our children to take responsibility and pride in their personal appearance. We have designed our school uniform with health and safety in mind and believe that it offers good value for money.
