Expectations for September

We are so proud of the superb performance of our students again this year; through their hard work in lessons and impressive engagement with the huge array of enrichment activities on offer at the school they have achieved a huge amount. As the year draws to a close, I thought it would be useful to remind you of our uniform and equipment expectations at Oxted School, so you have time to replace any missing items for a fresh start in September. 

Our uniform expectations extend to footwear, jewellery, hair, and make-up. All information on our uniform expectations and how to buy / order uniform can be found on our school website here. The Friends of Oxted School continue to stock and sell second-hand uniform, please do get in touch with Claire Kent (claire.kent@oxted.thpt.org.uk) to enquire about any items you are interested in purchasing. Likewise, if you have uniform you would like to contribute to the second-hand uniform supply, we are always grateful for your donations. 

Please remember that: 

• Our school jumper is an optional part of uniform; however, the blazer is compulsory
• Trainers or sports branded footwear must not be worn instead of shoes
• Hoodies are not permitted to be worn at any time
• Uniform is checked at the start of the day and throughout to support students to maintain a smart appearance while at school 

To aid students with their learning, students are expected to bring the following equipment to school every day: 

• A blue or black pen
• A green pen
• A pencil
• A ruler
• A scientific calculator
• A reading book 

If you are experiencing any financial difficulties which prohibits your child attending with the correct uniform or equipment, please speak to your child’s Year Team. 

Thank you for your continued support with ensuring that your child is correctly dressed and equipped for school, to allow them to fully participate in the full educational offer here at Oxted School. 

Ms C Nicholls, Senior Vice Principal
