Saltash Community School has a distinctive school uniform. When you accept a place at the school, we will assume that you are in full support of the uniform outlined below.  

We regularly tell our pupils that ‘we’re in the team, so we wear the kit.’ We expect our students to come to school dressed in our uniform, every day, because uniform helps to:

• Instil pride in being a part of ‘Team Saltash;’
• Support positive behaviour routines;
• Encourage identity with, and support for, our school ethos;
• Protect children from social and financial pressures to dress in a particular way;
• Nurture community cohesion and promote good relationships between different groups of students.

We appreciate that, for some families, the cost of uniform and equipment can be expensive. We are always willing to subsidise the cost of these essentials for your child. If you would like financial assistance with the above, please contact Dani King by emailing dking@saltashcloud.net or your child’s Head of Year.

Pre-loved uniform

We recognise that the current financial pressures on families can be hard and, as a school, we want to do what we can to help support our families. We expect to be able to distribute all parts of our uniform (from blazers to PE kits; from shirts to football boots). Items will be free of charge.

Please check the school website for details of opening times.

Alternatively, if you have a specific request for uniforms, please email: dking@saltashcloud.net

Maintaining high expectations

If children do not attend in the correct uniform, they will be given ‘borrow kit’ or issued with a permit giving 7 days to allow time to sort replacement items. We follow a sanction system for students who refuse to wear borrowed items, cannot remove prohibited items or repeatedly wear the incorrect uniform after previous permits have been issued.
