With high temperatures forecast, pupils are permitted to wear school PE kit if they would prefer rather than full school uniform for the rest of the term. Thank you for your support in ensuring that only school PE kit is worn and a reminder that Nike shorts are not school PE kit. pic.twitter.com/aUFjwQqVNa— Stanwell_School () July 9, 2025
