Uniform

SCHOOL UNIFORM

The School uniform is intended to give students a pride in their appearance and in the School and to ensure fairness to all.  Correct uniform should be worn for school, and on school outings unless specific permission is given to the contrary.  General tidiness is expected of all students.  Ornamentation is not permitted when uniform is being worn.  Hair should be no more than collar length (although pupils wearing their hair long on religious grounds is, of course, acceptable).  The Headteacher reserves the right to decide the suitability of clothing for schoolwear, especially as fashions are constantly changing.
