Uniform

School Uniform Information
School Uniform Information We are sure that all parents and carers would want us to maintain high expectations and high standards. School uniform remains non-negotiable and I would much prefer that staff are discussing with students their work and their progress in lessons than using their time having to deal with non-uniform clothing; to this end we have tried to make guidance as clear as possible.

All of our rules regarding uniform are also available in student planners – if in doubt please don’t hesitate to ask us for advice. Please be aware that clothing sold in the ‘school uniform’ section of a store is not necessarily in line with our uniform policy. The final decision regarding the suitability of an item of clothing within our rules rests with the Headteacher.
