Uniform
Staff and Governors at Springfield Primary School feel that it is important for all children to wear school uniform every day.

Jewellery
Children are permitted to wear only one set of small stud earrings at school. These should be taken out by the child during PE. Recently pierced ears should be covered with tape during PE lessons until earrings can be removed. Children are permitted to wear a non-digital wristwatch.
Hair
The school does not permit children to have patterns cut into their hair as these could serve as a distraction to other children and are considered by the governing body to be unsuitable for school. The school does not permit unnatural colourings in the children's hair for similar reasons. Hair which is longer than shoulder length, for either boys or girls, must be tied back at all times. Hair adornments such as slides or headbands must be neat, unobtrusive in colour and size, and serve a practical purpose rather than just being fashion accessories. Similarly, nail varnish, Acrylic or false nails should not be worn.
All clothing must be labelled clearly with the child’s name, we will not take responsibility for lost clothing items.
We believe that the affordability and availability of uniform should not be a barrier for anyone. Therefore, our school uniform is simple and affordable. Parents have the choice of buying branded uniform from suppliers or they can buy generic uniform from local supermarkets, such as Asda, Tesco and Sainsburys.
