SIXTH FORM DRESS CODE
Sixth form students are expected to set an example to the rest of the school through their high standard of businesslike dress and the way they present themselves.
The intention of the sixth form dress code is to maintain the smart appearance of the lower school years. A sixth former should be able to leave the school site and immediately attend a formal interview without having to change their appearance.
The Sixth Form dress code is smart office wear and the requirements are as follows:
Male
Preferably a suit – i.e. navy, grey or black tailored jacket and trousers
OR
Jacket and tailored trousers Shirt with a tie
Smart shoes (not trainers or other casual shoes)
Female
Suit (preferably a dark colour) – i.e. jacket with matching tailored skirt or full length tailored trousers
OR
Tailored jacket with tailored skirt, trousers or dress
Fitted shirt or smart top without logos. Shirts and blouses must cover the midriff. Vest tops, low cut tops or tops that reveal midriffs are not suitable
Smart shoes (not trainers or other casual shoes)
Muslim girls are permitted to wear a head scarf (Hijab) should they wish. These should be either black or red. Full face head veils (Niqab) are not permitted.
EXCLUSIONS
- Hooded tops are not to be worn at any time

Any student who breaches the school dress code can expect to be sent home to change.
