All students must wear full school uniform until they reach the Sixth Form.  Our aim is to set a standard of dress and appearance which will be appropriate and acceptable for school.  We hope that parents will support us by sending students in the correct uniform and help us to maintain high standards.  The initial cost of uniform is offset by the fact that it is worn regularly and eliminates the expense of being the most fashionably dressed.  We have tried to ensure that everything required is simple and hardwearing.
