Information
Uniforms
A plain white thobe with a black blazer and plain black leather shoes.
Personal presentation is important in the world of work and we want to make sure that every student develops a sense of pride in how they look. We have kept the uniform easy for parents to afford and purchase in common shops.
The school has a clear standard for appearance that all students are expected to follow.
We are raising students of knowledge and young men who have self-respect.
Hair is worn in a simple, neat and tidy style. Skin fades, low tapers and stepped cuts are not permitted, nor are patterns or lines shaved into the hair. Hair is not dyed, bleached or coloured. Natural hair texture is not a matter of discipline.
Likewise no labelled jumpers, hooded tops, coloured trainers or street wear (Hoodrich, Trapstar) under their thobes.
Clothes should be plain, ironed and clean.
The Uniform Policy sets out the full standard. No student is sent home, kept out of lessons or made to wait for a parent because of a uniform or hair matter. Where an item is missing, the school lends a replacement where it can.
We are teaching the students that their age is important and how people portray them is often based on looks which form first impressions and judgements. Likewise the appearance of a student often effects their mentality so it’s important they are in formal clothing.
