Uniform & Equipment

‘Excellence in Everything’ is the statement that all staff and students must adhere to in everything they do, including their uniform and conduct.

Notes for lack of uniform will not be accepted. 

For more information on how we expect students to present themselves in Uniform, please see below.

Purchasing School Uniform

Price & Buckland

All school uniform is available to order online. This is direct from our supplier Price & Buckland and will be delivered to your home address within 5-7 working days. 

Uniform is now also available to order online and to purchase in-store from Pages Schoolwear which is based on the Invicta Business Park.

Any item listed with a * can be purchased from any suitable high street shop or supermarket.
 

 Uniform Expectations 

• No jewellery. Watches are allowed. Students will have to remove the item of jewellery and the item will be confiscated.
• Obvious and visible make up is not allowed, including lipstick, eyeshadow and highlighter.
• Nail varnish, false nails, and false eyelashes (including extensions) are not allowed.
• Hair colour should be natural and the style should not be extreme.
• Socks should be black or dark navy and with no branding.
• Uniform must be worn correctly. This includes wearing a blazer at all times, no hoodies at all although a coat may be worn over the blazer when it is cold. Shirt must be tucked in and the tie (if applicable) When held flat the tie must touch the top of the trousers/skirt/shorts. Appropriate trousers/skirt and black, polishable shoes must be worn. 
• If a student is seen with shirt untucked, for example, they will be corrected. Repeated corrections will result in further sanctions. 
• If students do not meet these expectations but cannot correct because they are missing an item or wearing an inappropriate item, they will be sent home to correct. If this is not possible, they will be isolated all day that day and must be in proper uniform the next time they attend school.  Sixth Form students are expected to be in business dress at all times. Sixth Form students who do not adhere to this policy will be sent home to change. 
• All of these actions are taken to ensure that all students take pride in their appearance and that our students are treated fairly. It is unfair if the vast majority of students keep to the dress code and some do not.
