Uniform
Uniform is considered very important at Broadwater Down Primary School. Wearing a uniform gives pupils a sense of belonging and being part of the school team or community. Wearing it well shows that pupils have developed a sense of pride in their presentation and feel a responsibility to promote good impressions to visitors and the wider community.
