Dress Code
Principles
- We encourage all members of the Sixth Form community to be comfortable and dressed sensibly for school
- Our dress code is gender neutral and promotes religious and ethnic equality
- We encourage self-expression of personal identity as is appropriate in an educational environment
- We will consult with the Sixth Form council and individuals to come to a mutually acceptable resolution on necessary amendments
- We would like to promote ecological sustainability in clothing choice and reuse
What we would promote in clothing
- Sensible comfortable footwear which allows safe mobility to and from school and within the building
- Tops should be significantly closer to the waistline rather than significantly above and should not be completely strapless
- Shorts, dresses and skirts should be significantly closer to the mid-thigh than the top of the leg
What should not be worn at school
- Hats unless for approved medical reasons or religious observance
- Clothes which could be classified as predominantly beachwear
- Slogans which could cause understandable offence
