Uniform Donations Welcome

We are now working with Uniformd to launch a sustainable way for parents to access preowned uniform at a fraction of the retail price. Our online shop will launch soon, if you have any good quality uniform that you would like to donate to us please drop this off at either the main reception or the leisure reception.

Items such as blazers, shirts, trousers, jumpers, ties, PE kit, skirts and football boots are all greatly received.

General
Jumper:

At the discretion of the Headteacher, jumpers may be removed in hot weather. Pupils will be notified of this via their tutors.
Hair & Nails:

No spiky hairstyles. No extreme haircuts eg No 1 or No 2 or Mohican style/patterns/stripes. No unnatural looking bleached or coloured hair, braiding or beads.

Nails must be short (no longer than the top of fingers) and clean.  False nails, polish or treatments that leave a visible coating on the nail are not permitted. All pupils are expected to have clean, short fingernails with no artificial or nail products.  This removes the risk of harbouring microorganisms which are not easily removed during normal hand hygiene.
Beards & Facial Hair:

Should be neat and tidy.
Jewellery & Make-up:

One plain signet style ring only. No other wrist wear allowed other than a watch. Earrings: A small single stud is allowed – in one or both ear lobes. No other facial jewellery may be worn. No necklaces, chains or beads etc. Any jewellery brought to College is done so at the owners risk. No make-up should be worn other than for medical reasons. Nail varnish should not be worn. False eyelashes are not permitted.

Extra kit:

Football boots & waterproof jacket as required. Your child may also require a gum shield for contact sports.
Hair:

Hair must be tied back for PE.
Jewellery:

Jewellery can be very dangerous when participating in PE and must not be worn at all.

Pupils must wear clean, correct PE kit every lesson (even when ill or injured) so they can take an active part in the lesson and fully participate once they return to full health. This way, College uniform is not damaged whilst standing on muddy pitches and any illness won’t worsen as pupils will have dry uniform to change back into. Only at the College’s discretion ie severe injury or illness, may this rule not apply.

Physical education is compulsory – only in exceptional circumstances will alternative arrangements be made for pupils. Pupils will remain with their teaching groups and participate in the role of coach or official (scorer, timekeeper or manager) for the activity as is evident in the professional world of sport.

Finally, non-participation due to any injury and illness requires a note, as well as kit. Any notes to excuse participation should be written as a letter and handed to your child’s teacher at the beginning of the lesson. We ask that these letters are signed and dated by the Parent/ Carer.
