As a academy we set high standards in all that we do.  Schools are a place of work for everyone who attends them.  As such, we expect students to come to school dressed in an appropriate manner, in the agreed school uniform.  Students are only permitted to wear one stud in each ear plus a wristwatch.  They should avoid extreme hairstyles, eg coloured streaks, number one haircuts etc.  The Headteacher reserves the right to decide if a particular hairstyle is unacceptable.

Currently our uniform is:

Black blazer with school badge in appropriate College colour – badge available to purchase from school (student reception)
