Our uniform helps to maintain not merely good standards of dress but also good conduct and hence the best possible progress in classwork. It also gives a sense of identity. Your support as parents / carers is critical in enabling us to uphold the uniform expectations consistently and effectively.
If you have any questions on any aspect of the uniform, please contact the school office.
A high standard of personal appearance is expected of all students and anyone arriving in school wearing incorrect uniform will be expected to change. If this is not possible, they will work in isolation for the day.
