Our policy on school uniform is based on the notion that school uniform: Promotes a sense of pride in the school; Engenders a sense of community and belonging towards the school; Is traditional and smart;
Identifies the children with the school; Prevents children from coming to school in fashion clothes that could be distracting in class; Makes children feel equal to their peers in terms of appearance; Is designed with health and safety in mind.

Full school uniform must be worn to and from school on school days, and on day-time visits, away sports fixtures and by pupils on duty at school functions.
Smart hair styles are expected in keeping with the traditional values of the school and all pupils must keep their hair tidy and of reasonable length. This should not be exceptionally short or long. Once hair becomes collar length it must be tied back with school colour bobbles. Hair dyed in unnatural or varied colours is not permitted nor are extravagant hairstyles.
Make-up is not allowed, nor is nail varnish.
On health and safety grounds, No jewellery, other than a wrist watch (not a “smart” watch) is permitted. Please note – Do not allow your child to have ear piercing done during term time as the healing process takes several weeks. This is a summer holiday activity only.
Traditional style shoes must be worn – no trainers or boots.
Shirts and blouses must be tucked in at all times.
All items of clothing must be clearly labelled with the child’s name.
Uniform requirements will be enforced by all staff.

I would highly recommend Farrowdale House school. I've seen my child progress at an amazing rate not only academically but also socially. I would probably describe the school as a big happy family, all the children really look out for one another, they have lovely manners, dress smartly and show fantastic support for each other. This is down to the hard work the teachers put in and the way the school is ran.

can HIGHLY recommend Farrowdale House Independent Preparatory School in Shaw. My son has just started in early years and they accept the 15/30 hours free childcare - and also offer FREE before school club from 7:30am which for me was a huge bonus. I can’t tell you how much he’s come on in the few weeks since starting. It’s such a lovely school, with lovely children and staff. ’ve just started my daughter in Year 6 there as she was struggling at her old school. Her attitude towards the classroom has completely took a huge turn and she enjoys going ! She feels listened too as the class sizes are a lot smaller.

My daughter is at Farrowdale House, she's been there since she was 3 years of age now she's 5 and doing amazingly well with a reading age of 7. I would highly recommend it. The staff are so caring and supportive and it has a real family feel. We feel safe leaving our daughter knowing she is happy and reaching her potential. We are so glad we chose Farrowdale.

What do you appreciate most about Farrowdale? The approachable nature of staff, the culture which is based on family values and flexibility and agility or the curriculum to suit the child’s needs. The quality of education is outstanding and the staff know the children on an individual level so learning can be tailored to suit each child. I appreciate the teachers. Their teaching approach is personal and genuine. It’s not a ‘one size fits all’ school. Each pupil is individually catered for so they can learn and grow at their own pace.
