School Uniform

Every pupil at Shevington High School must wear a school uniform. Having a smart and professional attitude to dressing prepares students for the world of work. Not only is school uniform practical and smart it creates a strong ethos, a sense of identity and pride in the school. Wearing school uniform:

  • Reduces the social exclusion of students based on what they are wearing. 
  • Reduces tension as students do not have to compete with their peers for the latest fashion trends. 
  • It’s cost effective for parents in the long run.
  • Uniform encourages a sense of pride in personal appearance and being part of a community. 
  • It promotes safety, by making it easier to identify strangers.
  • Makes students ambassadors for the school in the community.
  • Supports discipline and good behaviour.

Equipment Requirements

The lack of equipment in lessons hinders effective learning and independence. We want all students to achieve the highest academic excellence and take responsibility for their learning. The first step is to be equipped and ready for the lessons ahead, to this end we expect all students to have basic equipment.

All Year 7 students are provided with a pencil case of essential equipment at the start of year.  If items are lost or need to be replaced, this is the parent and pupil's responsibility.  There is a School Shop available each morning where pupils can buy replacement equipment using cash.  Equipment can also be ordered by parents using Scopay.

Additional Maths equipment such as a compass and protractor are required for specific topics in Maths lessons.

Students bringing their own device from home must ensure that it is fully charged at the start of the day.  It is not possible to charge devices in school.
