School uniform plays a valuable role in contributing to the ethos of Kelvin Hall and setting the appropriate tone. In common with most schools in England, we have a school uniform and rules on appearance that we require all students to follow.

We believe that the wearing of a uniform:

• instils pride;

• supports positive behaviour and discipline;

• encourages school ethos and identity;

• ensures all students are included and feel welcome;

• protects children from social pressures to dress in a particular way;

• promotes good relationships.

Above all, we believe that school uniform indicates a student’s readiness for work and therefore supports effective teaching and learning.

Buying

Uniform is available through the school’s website where there is a link to APC Clothing and Rawcliffes Schoolwear, based in Hull City Centre. APC attend Induction Evening and visit the school each term so that uniform can be checked for size and ordered. There is a link to both on the school’s website, but if you have any questions please contact your child’s Pastoral Year Leader.
