School Uniform Shoe List
Generic school shoe requirements based on uniform guidelines.
Pupils must wear sensible plain black school shoes that are free from flashing lights, jewellery or other decorations. The shoes must be completely black and have closed toes. Girls’ shoes must be flat, with no high heels or boots, and white or black sandals are permitted in summer. Boys’ shoes must not display trainer logos or emblems. Trainers, boots higher than the ankle, sandals (except the summer allowance for girls), and any shoes with flashing lights or decorative features are not allowed for regular school days.
Pupils must wear trainers or pumps during all PE lessons.
The PE kit requires that students use either a pair of trainers or pumps, which must be suitable for indoor or outdoor play.
No other footwear is permitted for PE activities; trainers are only allowed during PE lessons and clubs, and must be worn in place of regular school shoes.

Children's feet grow quickly - they may need new shoes every 3-4 months depending on age and activity level.
Check for Proper Fit:
- Allow approximately half an inch (1.3 cm) of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe
- Ensure the width is comfortable with no pinching or bulging
- The heel should fit snugly without slipping
- Shoes should be comfortable immediately - no "breaking in" period needed
When to Replace:
- When there's less than half an inch of growing room
- If the shoe shows signs of wear or damage
- If your child complains of discomfort or pain
- Check regularly for redness or blisters on your child's feet
Measuring Tips:
- Measure both feet while standing
- Measure at the end of the day when feet are at their largest
- Have your child wear the type of socks they'll wear with the shoes
- Use the measuring gauge on page 2 only if you can't get the shoes fitted professionally
- Shoes from different brands may have different sizing, so it's important to try them on
