Hair
Hair should be an appropriate style for school. We do not accept extreme hairstyles. Students should not have a shaved head. Long hair must be kept tidy, and should be tied back when in practical lessons such as DT and PE for health and safety reasons. Students should have hair of natural colour as artificial colours are seen as “extreme”. Hair should be in the natural colour range e.g. blonde, brunette, natural red. Hair accessories are not encouraged but when worn should be subtle.
Jewellery
One pair of small earrings – these should be studs, confined to the earlobe, for health and safety reasons. No other jewellery should be worn. No nose studs, tongue studs or facial piercings. Students are allowed to wear a watch, but this must not be a Smartwatch. Students will be asked to remove jewellery and any recurrence will result in jewellery being confiscated for the day.
Mobile Devices
Students in Years 7-10 must hand their mobile phone into their tutor in the morning. These will be kept in a locked box until the end of the day. Students in 11 may bring a mobile phone to school, but they are to be kept out of sight throughout the school day. Any student using their mobile phone on the school premises will have it confiscated for the day. Parents/guardians will be asked to collect mobile phones should a student continue to use them in school.
Make-up
Make-up, false eyelashes/nails and coloured nail varnish are not allowed. Students wearing make-up or nail varnish will be asked to remove it, and will be provided with the necessary materials to do so. Students wearing false nails or eyelashes will be expected to remove them.
Continued breaking of behaviour and standards will result in appropriate sanctions.
Students who refuse to remove make-up or jewellery will be isolated for the day and parents will be contacted to reinforce expected standards; we appreciate the support of parents and carers in upholding our high expectations of behaviour and standards.
