Kind friend For P.E. young people need a pair of trainers and sportswear. We also have a swimming pool, so swimwear is also required. The staff in the home will support your child to choose clothing appropriate to wear for the school day. Young people often wear dark jeans or jogging bottoms with a shirt or jumper during the school day. We do not have a set school uniform but ask parents to ensure their child has clothes that are suitable for all weather conditions and that they feel comfortable and secure in.
