William Davis Primary School
Shoe Guidelines
School Shoes
Pupils must wear sensible shoes with good grip as part of their regular school uniform. The policy does not specify a particular colour or brand for these shoes. Wellington boots are allowed for outdoor activities and are listed separately as an appropriate footwear option. No other types of footwear are specifically prohibited, and the policy does not set any additional restrictions on the style or design of regular school shoes.
PE Shoes
Pupils in Years 1 to 6 must wear plimsolls or trainers for all PE lessons, both indoors and outdoors, ensuring the footwear is appropriate and non‑slip.
In swimming lessons pupils wear a swimming costume; footwear is not required, and any footwear used must be suitable for the swimming environment.
During early years (nursery and reception), pupils wear sensible shoes with a good grip for outdoor play, and Wellington boots may be worn in wet weather.
No additional footwear is specified for sports, games or other activities beyond the plimsoll/trainer requirement for PE.
