Uniform

The Governing Body and staff at Ysgol Bae Baglan believe that a school uniform is an essential part of the ethos of the school giving a sense of belonging and helps create a working atmosphere. It also ensures that all pupils look the same which is extremely important for safeguarding, removes the stigma in terms of what to wear thus providing an identity for all.  Our full policy is available to download here: School Uniform Policy.

Unbranded Items

Parents are free to buy non-branded items from any leading high street store and these include items such as trousers, shirts, blouses, skirts and shoes. However, please support us by buying items that follow the uniform policy;   we do not allow jeans, skinnies, trainers or canvas shoes.

The school’s decision on uniform is final. If parents are concerned about whether a particular item / style is suitable then they should contact the school for advice before buying or sending the child to school.

Jewellery is not allowed in school except a watch and a single set of stud earrings which are permitted. If makeup is worn by a pupil then it must be unobtrusive.
