Uniform Information

School uniform is compulsory for all students attending the school. We believe that wearing a school uniform in a proud and smart manner promotes positive self-esteem and, therefore, is integral to the ethos of the school. All students are expected to arrive at school every day in uniform, worn in a tidy manner. We expect our students to take pride in their school uniforms.

All students are expected to wear PE uniforms on PE days. You will be informed about these days at the beginning of the academic year. The Headteacher will give guidance regarding the dates when summer and winter uniforms are to be worn, according to the seasonal weather conditions.  Summer uniforms will be required at the beginning of the year.

Other Items:

Footwear is an important aspect of the school uniform; the correct socks and shoes complete the uniform. Shoes should be black, business-like in style and worn each day.

On PE days, Students must wear appropriate footwear for the activity on offer normally training/sports shoes. All students should wear regular PE uniforms for lessons and house colours for competitions and events only. The use of coats and anoraks are encouraged during cold and rainy days, and sun hats on sunny days. A pair of indoor and outdoor shoes is also required throughout the year and is essential during the winter months.

General Appearance:

For safety reasons, the wearing of earrings (except studs), or other jewellery (metal or plastic) is not permitted. They represent potential hazards to all participants. Medical, professional and occupational safety advice confirms that they should be avoided at all times.

Shirts top buttons should always be done up and ties should always be fully pulled up to the collar. Hair should be worn in a neat style, while mohicans, tramlines and bright colours are not considered appropriate hairstyles for school. If a student attends school with a hairstyle that is deemed inappropriate, the Headteacher will inform the parents and request a more suitable style. Furthermore, a student may be required to wear hair tied back and/or to remove it if it is deemed hazardous to an activity.
