Uniform

At St Francis Xavier School, we believe that our uniform is an integral part of our identity, creating a positive working attitude.

Uniform expectations

We would like to remind all parents about the need for constant vigilance and co-operation in helping us to maintain the highest standard of appearance of the uniform. 

If a child's uniform is not worn properly then parents can expect a phone call home with a short period to rectify it.  Failure to do so could result in sanctions being applied that may include isolation and/or, in extreme circumstances, being sent home.

Any pupil unable to wear the correct shoes due to medical issues will need a note from their doctor specifying the reasons.  The Pastoral Department has a supply of spare uniform, including shoes, which children can wear on a temporary basis. 

 

In all cases, school reserves the right to determine what is and is not acceptable in terms of uniform.
