The way you present yourself is important to the school and first impressions count.

We expect Sixth Form students to always be smart and well-presented in a modest and professional business-like manner. Below is a summary of the dress code to ensure openness and transparency of expectations as they apply to Sixth Form.

If uncertain, please clarify the suitability of items of clothing and style with the Director of Sixth Form.

Students who are dressed in an undignified manner and/or are in breach of the dress code will be sent home to return to school after they have changed into appropriate wear.

Gentlemen

• A suit with a shirt and tie.
• Top button on shirts must be fastened.
• Black or brown formal shoes NOT trainers or boots.  Socks must be worn.

Ladies

• A suit jacket with trousers or formal skirt (knee-length), all of which should look like they come from a suit though not necessarily the same suit. Colours should be suitably sober.
• Discreet jewellery and make-up.
• Skirts must be knee-length and appropriate material i.e. non-clingy and not figure-hugging.
• Tailored formal-wear trousers (skin-tight trousers/leggings/jeans etc. are not allowed as they are unprofessional).
• Blouses/shirts must be plain (or subtly patterned): should have sleeves and be of an opaque material.
• Black or brown formal shoes that are flat or have a low heel.  They must be worn with dark socks or tights.  Trainers or boots are not permitted.
