Uniform

We expect all our students to adhere strictly and at all times to our uniform and general appearance requirements. Failure to comply with the following rules will result in ‘exclusion' and possibly ‘expulsion' if the problem reoccurs. Students must remember that when they are outside school and in uniform they are ambassadors for the school and their appearance and behaviour must reflect our high expectations.

In general we expect all students to be tidy, well presented and proud of their appearance whilst in school uniform. All students must observe the following requirements:-
