All students in years 9, 10 and 11 are expected to wear correct school uniform at all times. Students attending this school benefit from its reputation, and we expect students in turn to help maintain that reputation by high standards of behaviour and appearance, both in school and in the local community. Parents whose children are allocated places here are expected to support the school policy on uniform.
Our uniform aims to promote individuality and inclusion in line with our ethos. Students have the flexibility to make a personalised choice within specific guidelines outlined below. We believe this will help to promote our school in a positive manner in the local community.
As you know, we have really high expectations of our students and their uniform, behaviour and appearance. We appreciate your full support in ensuring your children are ready and prepared to learn during the school day
