School Uniform Shoe List

Generic school shoe requirements based on uniform guidelines.

School Uniform Guidelines

Pupils must wear plain black school shoes with leather soles and closed toes. Trainers that are plain black and free of any logos are permitted. Shoes that have open toes, high heels, or that are worn with socks on are not allowed. The policy also indicates that school shoes should not be worn in the classroom, for lunch or in the gym.

School Shoe Fitting Guidelines

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
