Uniform
We are proud of our school and the high expectations that all adults and children have of themselves and each other. Heathcoat Primary School is proud of its uniform and how our pupils appear, both in school and to the public. We believe this reflects positively on our school, but more importantly it ensures our pupils feel prepared for work and face fewer distractions in the classroom. Our school uniform is important because it provides all pupils with a shared identity, is practical for everyday school wear and helps to avoid the influences of current fashions. .
All pupils are expected to wear this uniform correctly. Parents will be contacted and asked to provide an alternative if pupils are in incorrect uniform. HPS uniform policy April 2026
We ask that all uniform is named.
