All students are expected to wear Stour Valley Community School uniform. As a member of the school, students will develop a sense of pride in themselves and their uniform. Parental co-operation is essential to achieve this aim. To view our full policy on school uniform, please click on this link

PE kit is expected for every PE lesson, regardless of injury or illness. It is then at the discretion of PE staff as to whether kit will be required.

All items of clothing should be named. We can highly recommend purchasing Stikins labels (printed labels that stick on, and stay on). Our unique fundraising number is 36034.

Please also note that students must not wear items of outdoor clothing inside. This includes hats, gloves and scarves. These should be left in lockers.

Students should wear a blazer at all times unless given permission not to do so by a member of staff, for example in warm weather. No denim or leather clothing should be worn.

We retain the right to send students home if they are not in full school uniform. This is made explicit to parents by means of our Home-School Agreement.
