Principles and policy

Sixth Form students at the school wear a uniform, different from that of the Lower School. This is an important part of our Sixth Form ethos: the objective is that the young adults in our Sixth Form create a professional, purposeful and business-like image.  Sixth Form students are expected to wear their uniform correctly and set a positive example to the rest of the school.  

Girls’ Uniform

Items marked with * are available from the official school uniform provider Hawkinsport.

• *Plain black tailored jacket with a collar and plain dark buttons.
• *School brooch (obtainable from the school) to be worn on the jacket lapel.
• *White blouse/shirt with a revere-style collar. T-shirts or sleeveless styles are not acceptable.
• *Plain black skirt, worn close to the knee. Regulation skirts are available in two styles from the school uniform supplier. Ankle-length skirts can be purchased from the same supplier for students who wish to wear longer skirts for religious reasons. ‘High street’ alternatives are acceptable provided they closely match the colour and style of the regulation skirts. Skirts made from non-woven stretch material are not allowed.
