At Oakmere we believe our uniform helps give pupils pride in their school and show they are part of the Oakmere team…
Our school uniform is designed to be comfortable and to look smart. We need to show pride in our school, and a smart uniform worn with pride is a way of doing this. Parents who do not send their children in the correct school uniform will receive text reminders, then letters and will be invited to meetings with the Head Teacher to discuss why they choose not to comply with the school rules.
