If a student arrives in school with incorrect uniform, they will be expected to accept the offer of a correct uniform.
They may also be sent home to change into the correct dress. Trainers are only to be worn for PE unless we are provided with a doctor’s certificate giving a medical explanation.
General Uniform Rules
- No dyed, or multi-coloured hair or styles that are offensive e.g. shaved/partially shaved heads.
- Painted or acrylic nails are not permitted.
- False eyelashes or heavy make up are not permitted.
- Henna: henna on nails is not permitted. For celebrations during term time, patterns which can be covered with uniform are permitted.
- Jewellery/ Piercings: no jewellery may be worn in school with the exception of a watch (which is not a SMART watch) and a pair of gold or silver plain studs at the bottom of each earlobe.
- Eyebrow slits are not permitted. You will be sanctioned and asked to take responsibility for filling it in. Failure to do so will result in sanction escalation.
Summer Uniform Rules
Uniform remains the same all year round but in hot weather, blazers will become optional once instructed by the Headteacher.
