Newark Hill Academy

Uniform

Uniform can be expensive, so to ensure this is affordable we require only three branded pieces of compulsory uniform which are:
  • Academy jumper or cardigan with the academy logo.
  • PE polo shirt for PE days
  • The academy tie (Year 4-6)
These items can be purchased from our Online Uniform Shop by clicking this link There is a document below with a guide from Price and Buckland of how to order uniform with a price and size guide.
 
All other items should follow the guidelines below, but they can be purchased from other shops like supermarkets.
 
The Newark Hill Academy has strict guidelines on dress and all pupils are expected to wear the full Academy uniform. The wearing of our distinctive uniform gives pupils a sense of ‘belonging’, helps foster a pride in the Academy and stops pupils coming to the Academy in unsuitable clothes.
 
These basic requirements are:
  • Shoes must be black, flat soled or with very low heels no more than two centimetres high.  No boots allowed.
  • Wellington boots for wet play
  • Trainers that are black in colour with a black sole without an evident logo are allow.  
  • No make-up, nail varnish, dyed hair or hair extensions.
  • Excessive hair styles are strongly discouraged and decisions about the suitability of an individual style are the responsibility of the Principal, whose decision will be final.  ‘Cuts’ of any shape or design are not allowed, nor are multiple hair colours. 
  • Any pupils with long hair must have it tied back away from their face using discreet hair accessories in keeping with the uniform colours and style.
  • Jewellery is not allowed, except for one pair of plain gold or gold coloured ear studs worn in the earlobe.  Ear-rings, rings, nose studs or other facial jeweller are not allowed.
