School Uniform
Mere Green Primary school believe that a school uniform plays a valuable role in creating a sense of identity and belonging, as well as contributing to the ethos of our school and promoting positive standards of appearance. A uniform also removes distractions, promotes equality and supports families and carers who experience financial hardship.
Parents/carers are expected to ensure that pupils wear the correct uniform when in attendance. Should you have any concerns about your ability to ensure this, then please share this with a member of staff who will signpost you to appropriate support.
