The school reserves the right to challenge inappropriate pieces of dress that undermine the school’s high standards and the learning environment. Students with incorrect uniform are expected to borrow uniform from the school’s range of spare uniform.
As an example, the following items are not appropriate:
- Hooded tops or sports jackets which are not waterproof are not permitted;
- Hats are not permitted indoors. A sensible woolly hat is allowed in winter and a sensible sunhat is allowed outdoors in extreme heat. Caps are not allowed other than in exceptional circumstances such as extreme hot weather and should only be worn outdoors at break and lunch. Hats of any nature are not permitted indoors.
- Any headwear, for example bobbles, ribbons and headbands should be sensible and subtle.
- Items such as bandanas, balaclavas and durags are prohibited.
- Fashion that distracts from learning, undermines the school uniform and draws unnecessary attention to individual students.
- Haircuts need to be sensible and should not cause a distraction from learning. Please check with your child’s Achievement Leader before any drastic changes are made.
- Some examples of haircuts that aren’t sensible include; patterns shaved into hair, extreme colours, colours of an unnatural shade and the use of coloured beads.
- Excessive makeup including false eyelashes is not permitted.
If your child is eligible for free school meals, we will be able to support you with uniform. Please contact your child’s Achievement Leader.
