Outdoor Clothes: Hoodies, denim or leather jackets are not permitted in school. Coats should be of outdoor, specifically waterproof material and warm.
Jewellery: Metal earrings, other than one pair of small studs – one in each ear, are not allowed in school as they constitute a health and safety hazard. In the event of a child having her or his nose/eyebrow/lip/tongue. etc. pierced, the stud must be removed during school hours. Plasters simply covering up these types of piercings will not be an acceptable alternative. The school allows clear plastic / rubber retainers to keep holes additional pierced holes open.
Students are allowed one flat ring and a pair of bracelets only.
Make-up and Nails: The school rules on makeup are as follows:
Pupils wearing excessive makeup are required to remove it.
Hairstyles: The school reserves the right to make a judgement on where pupils’ hairstyles or hair colours are extreme or inappropriate for the school environment; however, will ensure that any such judgements do not discriminate against any pupil by virtue of their protected characteristics. Each individual pupil’s scenario will be considered and, where any judgements on appropriateness are to be made, parents will always have the freedom to complain via the school’s Complaints Procedures Policy.
Pupils with long hair must ensure that this does not impede their vision, cover their face or provide a health and safety risk. Long hair must be tied up during practical lessons, e.g. during PE.
Adverse Weather: All pupils are required to wear weather-appropriate clothing that covers as much of their skin as possible during adverse weather. Pupils are advised not to wear any jumpers or blazers during heatwaves. If outside during break times, pupils not wearing sun-safe clothing are advised to stay in an area protected from the sun, or spare clothing is provided.
For cold temperatures, this includes wearing:
Outdoor winter activities kit
Indoor winter and summer activities kit
