NON-COMPLIANCE

The Headteacher will enforce the Governors' policy on uniform and appearance.  Where appropriate, a pupil may be sent to the Exclusion Room to work.  A Fixed Term Exclusion, might be appropriate where breaches of the uniform and appearance policy is persistent and defiant.

 

Years 12/13

Students need to recognise school as a place of work and one that has a place in the wider community, therefore, a dress code is expected as in most places of professional work.  The current dress code expects students to be clean, smart and tidy.
