The School Uniform

A high standard of appearance indicates a positive and orderly approach to school life. It demonstrates conformity to school discipline and recognition that attendance at school is separate from social life; this ensures a proper attitude to, and a sharper focus on, work.

Please note that items of clothing bought from the uniform section of shops is not necessarily appropriate for our school.

The final decision regarding suitability for school will be made by the Assistant Head teacher. If a student is not dressed in correct school uniform they may be kept in isolation or sent home to get changed

Additional items which are not part of the school uniform may be confiscated and returned at the end of the day.
