Uniform

At Leicester Therapeutic School, we want children to take pride in belonging to a school where they feel safe, listened to and comfortable. The school encourages all pupils to identify with the school dress code as this gives a sense of belonging. We ask for parental co-operation in ensuring that pupils are suitably dressed. We expect all pupils to wear our school uniform but will never let the wearing of uniform become a barrier to a child accessing their education.  Above all, we want pupils to feel comfortable in the clothes they are wearing to school so they are best placed to engage in learning. 

Please dress your children for warmth and comfort as we spend a lot of time learning outside. We regularly give away items of pre-loved or outgrown uniform to the families in our school community. Please contact the school office for further details.

School uniform can be purchased directly from school

Leicester Therapeutic School are pleased to offer the first set of uniform for our pupils when they start on roll. 

School uniform consists of: 

• Grey or black trousers, skirts, or pinafore dress 
• Child's choice of pink/blue/green or yellow polo t-shirts 
• Black sweatshirts or zip top 
• In summer children may wear black or grey pinafore dresses or black tailored shorts 
• Trainers/shoes- Plain black. 
• Slippers- Children can keep a pair of hard soled slippers at school should they find this more comfortable.

​
On your child’s PE days, they will need to come into school wearing their PE kit. This consists of: 

• Plain black, grey or navy jogging bottoms, shorts or leggings 
• Pastel green t-shirt 
• Training shoes 

Please no sports logos on any items of clothing 

No jewellery, apart from watches and sleepers or studs in pierced ears only, should be worn to school. Jewellery should be removed for all physical education activities and the child must take responsibility for their possessions. We appreciate that this may be difficult for some children and so we recommend they leave earrings and watches at home on P.E. days. In the case of newly pierced ears, taping may be considered for a limited period.

Please note make up and nail varnish is not permitted.

Long hair must be tied back on PE days for safety reasons. Children’s hairstyles must be smart, plain and simple.
