School Uniform
It is our school policy that all children wear school uniform when attending school or when participating in a school-organised event outside normal school hours.
Forest Bridge School operate a flexible approach to uniform and, as such, will always consider requests for alteration to the uniform based on our pupils’ sensory or behavioural requirements.
We understand that some of our young people may have challenges that make wearing a uniform initially challenging. The Governing body at Forest Bridge School will respect variations on an individual basis, and judgements will remain at the discretion of the Headteacher.
We offer a change of uniform for those pupils in year seven upwards but recognise the change may not be appropriate/desirable for all of our pupils. With this in mind, pupils and their families may choose to remain with the primary pupil uniform or shift to the secondary uniform. If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact the school office or Headteacher.
