Therefore any excuses involving parental permission for banned items or standards of uniform is unacceptable, a student will be treated in accordance For genuine reasons as to why students may not be dressed in the regulation uniform when they arrive at school in the morning, they must report immediately to their appropriate Student Support Leader in order to seek a way to remedy the situation. Students who arrive in school in non-regulation footwear may be required to wear plimsolls provided by the school. There are also regular uniform checks upon entry to the school, during tutorial and lesson time. If students are not in the correct uniform, parents may be contacted and students either sent home to change or parents asked to bring the correct uniform into school. If a change of uniform cannot be arranged, students may be placed in seclusion to work during the day.

Jewellery that is not permitted may be confiscated. No excessive jewellery must be worn on any part of the body. Make-up Students can wear light touch make-up if they wish to do so.
