Sixth Form Dress Code

In the Sixth Form you will be expected to have a care about your appearance by dressing appropriately and professionally for a day of study. An acceptable standard of dress would be similar to clothes that you might wear for an interview or when serving customers in a business environment.

Boys:

• You may wear a suit if you choose, otherwise long, smart trousers (not jeans, cargo pants or tracksuit bottoms).
• You should wear a shirt with a collar and tie. During the summer term this policy will be reviewed. Please note that polo shirts are not acceptable.
• Jumpers should show your tie and shirt. Hoodies and sweaters are not appropriate attire.
• Shoes should be black or brown ‘office’ style – no trainers/ canvas plimsolls are allowed.

Girls:

• Girls may also choose to wear a suit, otherwise smart trousers or skirts (no jeans, cargo pants or tracksuit bottoms).
• Blouses or tops should be neat, tidy and appropriate for wearing to study: like office wear.
• Jumpers or cardigans should be smart. Hoodies and sweaters are not appropriate attire.
• Shoes should be smart and suitable for school: no trainers/ canvas plimsolls are allowed. No UGG boots or similar.
• Girls should ensure that their outfits are not revealing and inappropriate to the school environment.

Boys & Girls:

• Hats, gloves and coats should be removed for lessons and assemblies.
• Jewellery should be kept to a minimum. If in doubt, seek advice from your tutor.
• No nose/ facial piercings are permitted, nor should any tattoos be visible.
• Hair – extremes of style and colour are not acceptable. Minimum grade 1 and no tramlines or designs.

If a student fails to adhere to the dress code then they risk being sent home from their day of study.
