Uniform Expectations
Clothing
- Shirts must be tucked in at all times, including at break, lunch, before and after school.
- Blazers should be worn at all times unless students are given permission to take them off during lessons.
- Only narrow width, plain black belts are permitted.
- Only plain black V-neck jumpers can be worn under blazers.
- Hats, scarves and gloves must not be worn in the building.
- All clothing items should be labelled with the student’s name. The school cannot be held responsible for any loss.
Footwear
Please note that trainers, plimsolls, canvas shoes or any sports-style footwear must not be worn in school, but trainers can be worn on the tennis courts to play football at break and lunchtimes. If students decide to change into trainers, they must do so on the tennis courts and they must change back into their shoes before re-entering the buildings.
Students who have been instructed to wear trainers for medical reasons will be expected to have a doctor’s note. It is also expected that they will wear black or dark-coloured footwear so that the difference is less noticeable. Students wearing alternative footwear because shoes are broken or do not fit are expected to have a note confirming this and to report to their Student Support Leader, who will arrange for them to be issued with a pair of loan shoes.
The issuing of loan shoes is intended to help students in these circumstances. Refusal to wear loan shoes will attract a sanction in the same way as refusal to follow instructions from staff. The school would prefer not to have to enforce this regulation and it can easily be avoided by parents ensuring that their child is wearing suitable shoes for school.
Students will be expected to have new shoes by the beginning of the following week. If there are financial reasons why this is not possible, please contact the school directly, as we may be able to offer support.
