School Uniform Guidelines
Students are expected to wear the correct uniform and to maintain the highest possible standards regarding their individual presentation. Full uniform checks take place regularly. All items of uniform should be labelled.
Uniform Guide
We require our students to wear an academy uniform to establish identity, build belonging, and maintain high professional standards. Uniforms must be worn correctly in school, during travel, and on visits.
