Non-school uniform days
Please could all students and parents be aware that on non-uniform days our expectations regarding personal appearance, make-up/jewellery are the same as any ‘normal’ day. We want students to enjoy these days, however our expectations for these days are:
- No jewellery
- No make up
- No cropped tops
- Correct PE kit to be worn
Students must adhere to these basic expectations for all non-uniform days, for these days to continue.
General Points
- Brightly coloured T-shirts should not be worn underneath shirts.
- Cosmetics and coloured nail polish should not be worn to school. This includes false nails.
- Extreme hairstyles in terms of colour and cut e.g. tramlines/patterns are not permitted. Braids must be the same colour as the hair and must be secured by bands of the same colour. Any hair bands or bobbles should be plain and of a sensible size.*
- Jewellery (including badges) other than a wrist watch is not permitted. Ears and other body parts should not be pierced if it means that sleeper/studs have to be worn during the school day.
- Mobile phones, iPods and MP3 players must not be seen or heard during school hours. If seen they will be confiscated until the end of the week. Students are permitted to use mobile phones at the end of the school day outside the school buildings.
- If students wear incorrect footwear without an appropriate medical reason they will be isolated at break and lunchtimes.
Students who arrive at school not wearing the correct school uniform may be sent home to change.
