Tuesday 14 August 2018 Monday 22 October 2018 Wednesday 13 February 2019 Tuesday 07 May 2019 School Dress Renfrewshire Council encourages each school to adopt a dress code after discussion with parents, pupils and the parent council. The council supports an agreed dress code because of the benefits it brings, including improvements in safety, security, discipline, ethos and community spirit, and a decrease in bullying and expense for parents. Some types of clothing will not be allowed in school for reasons of safety, decency or indiscipline. Types of clothing which will not be allowed include: clothes which are a health or safety risk; clothes may damage the school building; clothes which may provoke other pupils; clothes are offensive or indecent; and clothes which encourage the use of alcohol or tobacco, or other inappropriate substances. Pupils will not be deprived of education, any benefit or access to examinations because of not wearing school uniform. In the interests of health and safety, of both individual and others present, all jewellery, including body jewellery, should be removed or taped over before taking part in physical education lessons or physical activities. Children are responsible for covering jewellery with tape. Grants for footwear and clothing for children are available to parents receiving: income support; income based job seeker's allowance; pension credit; housing benefit; council tax benefit; or depending on annual income, child tax credit or working tax credit. Information and application forms for free school meals are available from schools, registration offices and customer service centres. A form can be downloaded from
