All students at Bradfield School are expected to wear standard dress. Parents of all prospective Year 7 students will be invited to a school dress evening in Spring 2008 at which sweatshirts and other items available from our supplier can be ordered. In selecting our ‘standard dress’ we have aimed at smart but comfortable clothing which is inexpensive and good value for money.
Standard Dress:
School Sweatshirt - Dark green with school logo. These are only available from the school’s supplier.
Polo shirt - White, grey or black. These are available from the school’s supplier. If polo shirt has no school logo, students must keep sweatshirts on (or an item of clothing with logo present).
Trousers - Full length, not denim/canvas or tracksuit style.
Skirt - Plain black; very short skirts are not acceptable.
Formal shorts (not PE) - These are a standard Bradfield School design with logo and are only available from the school’s supplier. No other types of shorts are permitted.
Footwear - plain black, flat footwear including trainers. No logos or flashes. Parents sometimes find it difficult to buy plain black trainers and we recommend that you consider buying shoes. Please note that shoes or boots which are backless or have very high heels are not permitted as they are a health and safety risk.
Outdoor Clothing – An optional outdoor fleece is available.
Jewellery - Earrings, if worn, must be small, preferably studs, large hoop earrings are not allowed.
Jewellery related to nose, eyebrow, tongue and other facial or body piercing is not permitted in school. If you wish your son/daughter to have facial or body piercing, please ensure that it is done at the beginning of the summer holiday, in order that the piercing has healed and the jewellery does not need to be worn in school in September.

Key Stage 3 Kit:
Jade green PE shirt – available from the school’s supplier

Non-marking training shoes - for indoor activities (shoes which are not normally worn for school)
