Discreet make-up only is permitted, no nail varnish, fake nails or jewellery is allowed except for a wristwatch and for pierced ears when one pair of plain studs only may be worn. Any form of facial or body piercing is not permitted. Personal mobile telephones, IPods, IPads etc are permitted in college; they are to be used in line with the college’s ICT Acceptable Use policy and are brought in to school at the owner’s risk. Hairstyles should be of natural colour. We do not allow extremes of styles, or colour. No patterns or shaved heads allowed.

Uniform should be worn in a ‘smart and business like’ manner at all times when inside the building. This means shirts tucked in and ties done up properly. Skirts without a logo must be of the same style to that which can be purchased from Total Clothing.
** Whilst we do recommend that the above items are purchased from Total Clothing, the skirt, jumper and shorts can also be purchased in plain black, but MUST be of the same style and material of those items that are purchased from Total Clothing.
Students in year 11 have the privilege of wearing a plain black business suit and year 11 tie. The tie can be purchased through Wise Pay. If Year 11 students choose not to wear the current year 11 tie, then they will be expected to wear the normal school tie. Students choosing to wear skirts must ensure they are of an appropriate length for a business environment.
Please do not hesitate to contact us in confidence if you need any help in sourcing items of uniform as we do currently have some nearly new/pre-loved uniform available.
The school will have final say in relation to the suitability of uniform items.
