1. Rationale:

At Edison International Academy, all pupils are to wear the prescribed school uniform, which is part of ensuring a purposeful learning ethos. A complete list of the items that are part of the school uniform will be in each school’s procedure handbook. 

2. Aims:

This policy is based on the belief that a school uniform promotes a sense of pride in the school, and fosters a feeling of community and belonging. Edison International Academy’s uniform identifies our pupils with the school, is not distracting in class, and makes children feel equal to their peers in term of appearance.  

3. Uniform:    

The school uniform colours and items may change from year to year. Each year the uniform items will be itemised and added to the School’s information site.  

Boys:

• shirt with school logo
• trousers or shorts
• sweatshirt/jacket with school logo

Girls:

• short or long sleeved blouse with school logo
• knee/ankle-length dress/skirt with school logo
• sweatshirt/jacket with school logo

Physical Education Kit for Boys and Girls:

• polo shirt with school logo
• tracksuit bottoms or shorts
• sports shoes (no football shoes are allowed at any time)

Note: Children should come to school dressed in their PE Kits on designated PE days.

4. Footwear:

Pupils of Edison International Academy MUST wear flat black leather shoes. 

5. Headwear:

During the hot summer months, pupils of Edison International Academy should wear a cap with the school logo during break-time and outdoor activities.

6. Jewelry:

Apart from small ear studs for girls, jewelry is not allowed to be worn at Edison International Academy at any time on grounds of health and safety for all pupils. 

7. Labelling:

All uniform items are to be clearly marked with the pupil’s name.
