Uniform
At Valley Invicta Primary School at Aylesford we believe that excellent uniform is part of setting high academic standards. As a result, pupils will be expected to adhere to our uniform requirements at all times. This means that uniform must be worn correctly both in and out of school. All items of uniform are available from our supplier, Pages - https://pages-schoolwear.co.uk/
A full list of uniform can be found in the table below, with more detailed information in the pop-out sections at the bottom of the page.
This list was reviewed in September 2022 to reflect new legislation around school uniform affordability. A number of items which previously had to be purchased through our school uniform suppliers can now be purchased at any retailer.
Please note, also, that some items which were previously compulsory have now been made optional. If you wish to discuss any aspect of school uniform, please contact the school office.

PE kit policy
- Pupils must have their full PE kit in school at all times.
- If pupils do not have their proper PE kit, they will be sent to another class with work.
- Should a pupil not have their correct kit on three occasions, a letter will be sent home to parents. PE is a core component of the curriculum and, we believe, is vital to the wellbeing of all children.
- Pupils are not allowed to borrow PE kits for health and hygiene reasons.
- Children in KS2 should have trainers in school for all PE lessons.
Jewellery
On health and safety grounds we do not allow children to wear jewellery or earrings. Watches may be worn at school but must be removed for PE lessons.
