School Uniform

Our uniform was inspired by designs from pupils, and the final design voted on! We are Rotherfield! Wear it with pride!

We believe uniform is a really important part of our school identity.

We love uniform because:

Uniform stops children from being pressurised or feeling different because they do not have a certain label or brand to wear.  It is a social equaliser!

It is easy for parents in the morning – there is no argument about what to wear!

It helps identify children quickly when they are out of school.  This helps our teachers find us quickly – so helps to keep us safe!

Our uniform can be purchased Rough Cuts, 16 Chapel Market, Islington, N1 9EZ, or online at: http://www.roughcutcasuals.co.uk/

Friends of Rotherfield will be holding school sweatshirt and cardigan sales until Christmas. Please see the weekly newsletter for dates and times.

From 2022, we will be providing second-hand uniform at very limited cost in line with national guidance.  Please contact the office for details.

Our Uniform consists of:

Nursery:

There are no uniform requirements for Nursery pupils, although we would encourage parents to follow the uniform policy as this creates a sense of belonging early in their school journey.

Reception - Year 6:

We do not require that any single item of uniform be branded, although we encourage parents to buy the affordable Rotherfield branded jumpers where possible. All items can be purchased as low-cost versions without the Rotherfield logo or from the chosen school supplier with the school logo.
