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.

Equipment

To assist students in their learning, the following items are compulsory:

• School bag
• Refillable water bottle
• 1 x clear pencil case
• 2 x black or blue pens
• 1x purple pen
• 1 x ruler
• 1 x eraser
• 1 x scientific calculator

The following items will further support students and are therefore desirable:

• Glue stick
• Scissors
• Pencil sharpener
• Highlighters
• Compass
• Protractor
• Coloured pencils

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 want to do what we can as a school 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 uniform please email: dking@saltashcloud.net

Maintaining high expectations

If children do not attend in the correct uniform, they will be issued with a permit giving 7 days to correct the uniform infringement (with the exception of jewellery, piercings, excessive make-up, acrylic nails, nail polish or hair colouring, which must be changed immediately). After those 7 days, they will be expected to wear items issued by the school on that day and for any future infringements. If a child refuses to wear these items, this will be dealt with in line with our behaviour policy for non-compliance.
