Uniform

As a school we feel that uniform is important as it helps young people with their feeling of belonging to our Wood Green community. In setting our uniform code, we hold the following principles at the centre of our thinking.

  1. Our uniform is inclusive – our uniform will not discriminate on the grounds of any of the nine protected characteristics.
  2. Our uniform is affordable – young people should be free from the pressures of having to wear designer labels at school and parents should be free from having to buy them. Branded items will be carefully chosen and kept to a minimum, and we will always ensure that our supplier provides best value for money.
  3. Our uniform is smart – we want students to come to school in smart looking uniform so that they are in the mind-set that Wood Green is a place to work hard and succeed. Leisure wear, such as jeans or hoodies, are not appropriate for the hard-working environment Wood Green is.

 In creating our uniform code, we have consulted with students, parents, governors and staff.

We are always happy to discuss our uniform approach, but also recognise that conflict over uniform can be distracting and distressing.

By being part of Wood Green School, all students are expected to follow the uniform code and parents and carers are expected to support it. The following information gives detailed information about all aspects of our uniform.
