Our Uniform
We strongly encourage children to wear school uniforms every day. Our school colours are green, grey and white. Parents/Carers can purchase sweatshirts, cardigans, polo shirts, pump bags and reading folders, which display the school badge from ‘My Clothing’.
Uniform Shop
We have an on-site uniform shop where good quality pre-loved items have been donated to the school. This is available to all pupils regardless of need. The uniform shop is open every school day and a small donation can be paid to the school office for these items. There is no barrier to wearing the Walsgrave CofE Academy uniform and Disadvantaged pupils and their families are supported financially as required. Any family requiring support should seek this through the Pastoral Team in the first instance.

Uniform Guidance
We would like children to wear the following:
• A school sweatshirt or cardigan
• A white polo shirt, white shirt, or white blouse.
• Grey trousers or tailored shorts, pinafore, or skirt.
• Grey tights or grey or white socks
• In summer: A green checked or striped summer dress, grey tailored shorts or grey skirt and a white polo shirt. Socks should still be worn with summer uniform.
Shoes: Flat, black sensible shoes should be worn to school – not high heels. If trainers are worn they should be black in colour with no adornments.
Jewellery: Stud/small sleeper earrings may be worn, but we request that no other jewellery should be warn unless for religious or medical reasons.
Please label each item of clothing with your child’s name so that lost clothing can be returned quickly to the owner.
Long hair should be tied back please.
PE / Sports Kit
On your child’s allocated PE day, we would like children to come into school wearing their PE kit.
Early Years & Key Stage One
• White T-shirt

For Children in Years 3 – 6, the basic information and PE kit are similar to Key Stage One. Extra items needed in Key Stage Two are:
