Uniform and Basic School Equipment
Uniform and Basic School Equipment
The wearing of school uniform plays an important part in
the school’s Discipline Policy. We believe that this promotes
good behaviour and proper regard for authority amongst
pupils. It also discourages competition which can be
particularly upsetting for some pupils as well as expensive
for parents. School uniform must be worn at all times.
Uniform

l Formal white shirt with collar
(to be tucked inside trousers/skirt).
l Black with red stripe clip on tie. Students are
required to wear the school tie all day.

slim/skinny (Not allowed: non-black zips, buttons on the

or denim coats/jackets. Coats should not be worn in the
school building and should be stored in lockers or bags.
Trainers
Trainers should not be worn except in supervised PE lessons
when it should be appropriate trainers only. For medical
emergencies where advice is given against wearing school shoes,
black trainers may be worn for the period of time indicated by
the doctor. The relevant Year Leader will need to see a note or
letter from a medical practitioner on the day or in advance.
Basic equipment
Being fully equipped for school is a key part of the ‘Home-
School Agreement’. Students should expect to be sanctioned
if they do not carry the correct equipment for school.
All students should ensure that they have the
following basic equipment for use in all lessons:
l Student planner (provided by
the school). Students should
bring their planner to school
with them every day.
l Pen and a spare (black or blue).
l Red pen for ‘reflection work’.
l Set of coloured pencils.
l Pencil.
l Rubber.
l 15cm or 30cm ruler.
l Pencil sharpener.
l Protractor.
l A pair of compass.
l Scientific calculator.
l Glue stick.
l Dry-wipe pen.
l A suitable bag to carry
equipment, books and PE kit.
The bag should be big enough
to hold an A4 file (e.g. a rucksack).
l Year 7 & 8 students to have
a French dictionary.
Equipment will be available to buy every morning before school, at
break and at lunch time and checked every day by the form tutor.
