- Helps to single out any intruders in school
Staff / School
- Improves safety and security by providing immediate identification of all pupils
- Avoids disputes over what is acceptable school wear

Our school policy, as with all other East Renfrewshire Schools, formalises the East Renfrewshire Council Dressing For Excellence Policy. This was updated in 2022 to ensure full account is taken of the cost of the school day and the cost of living rises. Any parent who requires support from the school for uniform should discuss this with their child’s pastoral care PT who may be able to access recycled uniform items.
