Uniform

At Woodstock House, we believe that wearing a uniform can foster a sense of belonging and equality between students. However, we also recognise that many of our students have sensory differences that can make wearing particular clothes difficult and our priority is that students feel comfortable and appropriately dressed for school. To support this, we have uniform guidelines, outlined below. Should further adaptations be necessary, please discuss this with the relevant member of staff.

Years 4-11

Please send students in clothing they will be comfortable and happy in that follow the below:

• A polo / or T-shirt in Cadbury purple
• Black sweatshirt / jumper
• Black trousers / shorts or knee-length skirt
• Black shoes / trainers 

PE kits to follow suit as above, students can come into school wearing their PE kits for the day.
