Everyone likes to feel like they belong, and we have discovered that in schools one of the best way to create a sense of belonging is through the wearing of school uniform.

Uniform and P.E. Kits

Our uniform supplier is ‘Redstone Embroidery & Print’ based in Narberth. Tavernspite School uniform consists of navy polo shirts, navy blue sweatshirts/cardigan and grey trousers/skirts.

Footwear

We ask parents to exercise restraint in the type of footwear their child wears. High-heeled shoes and /or Crocs can be a safety hazard and, therefore, are not allowed. Sensible shoes are the preferred option to be worn.

Jewellery

If earrings must be worn to school, they must be restricted to small ‘stud’ or ‘sleeper’ type. These should be removed before physical education as there have been some nasty accidents documented where children have suffered torn ear lobes. All other jewellery is discouraged in the interests of safety and to avoid problems if an item is lost.

Clearly Labelled

Occasionally, children lose or misplace articles of clothing. Please do help us by marking all items of school uniform so that can easily be returned to their rightful owner if lost.

Although school uniform is not compulsory, it is strongly encouraged. The benefits of wearing uniform have been clearly identified in terms of better discipline and pride taken in the school and a greater sense of identity and community within the school.

There is also less competition between children in terms of what they wear, and there are no disagreements between parents and children about what a child should wear to school. All children are expected to wear school uniform when representing the school in various competitions, concerts and open days.
