Uniform

Uniform Requirements

Every student is expected to be properly dressed in full College uniform at all times.

Wearing a uniform fosters a sense of belonging and school spirit. It encourages students to take pride in their school, creating a cohesive and inclusive community.

No variations in uniform are permitted and we expect that students will be well groomed at all times.

Extreme hairstyles and excessive jewellery and accessories are not permitted. Students are supplied with clear guidelines about these items in their school diary. Oversize shirts or trousers are also not acceptable.
