Sixth Form Dress Code

Our dress code reflects our culture as a Sixth Form; we want students to have the freedom of self-expression and should feel comfortable for learning. Sixth Form students are role models for the younger year groups, and we would like our Sixth Formers to develop the skill of selecting different clothes for different contexts.

Certainly unacceptable are lounge wear, beach wear, strapless tops and flip flops/crocs/sliders or very high heels.

Very short skirts or shorts must not be worn.

Leggings must not be see through.

Underwear should be kept as underwear; underwear should not be seen and crop tops and backless tops should be worn with an over shirt. The chest area should be covered by a top.

Caps, hoods and other head wear can be worn but in formal settings, such as assemblies or in lesson time, you may be asked to remove these and should do so if asked. Du-rags and headscarves can be worn at any time.

Tattoos must be covered.

The lanyard must be worn around the neck at all times and be visible (this is an important safeguarding requirement)

This list is not an exclusive list and we reserve the right to make decisions on a case by case basis if an item of clothing, or other aspect of appearance, is deemed to be distracting and unsuitable for the school environment. Please always check with the Sixth Form team who will be happy to advise.
