Midlothian Council operates a scheme of clothing grants to assist parents in ensuring that a pupil is sufficiently and suitably clad to take full advantage of the education provided.
Families will automatically qualify for such a scheme if they are:
in receipt of Income-based Job Seekers allowance.
on Income Support or Child Tax Credit but not Working Tax Credit (subject to a maximum annual income),
on both maximum Child Tax Credit and maximum Working Tax Credit (subject to a maximum annual income).
on support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999.
Other cases will be determined according to the personal circumstances of the family. Please contact your child's Pupils Support team for further details.
PE Kit
In Physical Education (PE), pupils will require a PE kit:
suitable sports footwear.
shorts or tracksuit trousers and a top.
for swimming: swim suit and towel.
for outdoor work: a sweatshirt, tracksuit trousers and warmer PE clothing is advisable.
If a pupil is able to attend school, but is not able to take an active or full part in PE lessons, they should bring a note explaining why they are not taking part and for how long. The class teacher can then involve the pupil in useful activities such as time keeping, scoring or officiating.
