Uniform
We endeavour to achieve a high standard in all our activities at school and we expect this to be reflected both in the appearance and behaviour of our pupils.
All children must have full school uniform, worn correctly, for daily attendance at school. Uniform will usually be worn on occasions when children are representing the school, including school visits.
Parents and carers are asked to co-operate fully by providing the uniform and ensuring children wear it correctly to and from school, and at other times as required.
Ordering Uniform
The school offers the full range of uniform, PE Kit and accessories which can be purchased directly online from our uniform supplier West Sussex Uniforms. Please click below to be taken to their website.
The design board for the uniform can be found below, please note the tracksuit comes in green and not grey as shown below.
Please ensure that all articles of clothing and other items brought to school are clearly marked with the child's name. One way to label uniform is to use name label stickers.
The PTA-Friends of Forgewood have partnered with Stikins to supply name labels for children's clothes and belongings. If you purchase your name labels with Stikins we can receive up to 30% commission! Follow the link below to order. Our school code is 35696

Outer Wear
In winter, children need a warm waterproof school coat. Denim, leather or fur jackets are not considered suitable for school. In summer an anorak, cagoule or similar should be brought to school when the weather is unsettled.
Footwear
Shoes should be suitable for school wear enabling your child to play safely at playtimes. Children should not wear trainers to school.
Winter
Plain style black shoes with no coloured stitching.
Summer
Black shoes or sandals (sling backed shoes are not acceptable).
We would be very grateful if in the wet weather you would provide your children with their school shoes to change into, rather than ask them to wear plimsolls or wellington boots in school.
