Announcements

Jumpers must be worn until the end of this term. After Easter break, they are optional.

Blazers must be worn and NOT in students' bags.

School trousers must be plain black, tailored and loose fitting. No denim or leggings are allowed. Students, male and female, are not permitted to wear ‘skinny’ trousers.

Each morning, we check students at the gate and any student not meeting the school’s expectations in terms of appropriate uniform will either have to wear a borrowed item of uniform from the school for the day or be sent home with a letter informing you of the reason. Following this, students are expected to return to school in the correct uniform.

Students are not permitted to wear trainers outside of P.E. lessons at school. If students do not have the correct footwear, we will send them home to get their school shoes.

If for any reason your child cannot wear either their own school shoes or a pair of ours for medical reasons, please inform the school in the usual way. Students who do not have medical reasons for not wearing shoes and do not have a suitable pair at home will be lent a pair of shoes for the day.

Finally, jewellery should be kept to a minimum – only one set of plain earring studs are allowed. No facial piercings are permitted. Clear studs are not acceptable. Hairstyles should be appropriate for a school/work environment and only natural colour with no highlights, lowlights or any bright colours.

Teenagers will try to modify the school uniform. Please follow this guide and do not allow students to bend the uniform rules or sway your judgement about what school uniform actually is!

In all cases, the school will determine whether your child meets the school’s expectations with regard to both uniform and appearance.
