Uniforms

We are raising students of knowledge and young men that must have self respect.

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.

Our students are taught to understand that this period in their lives is important. People will base their first impression and judgements on their appearance. Likewise, the appearance of a student often effects their mentality, making it all the more essential they present themselves formally.

  • Black blazer
  • White thobe (“Haramain” style), bought online
  • Plain white shirt underneath (no branding)
  • School badge, bought from the school office
  • Black V-neck jumper
  • Black trousers
  • Black socks
  • Black plain leather school shoes (no trainers, boots or canvas shoes)
  • Plain white kufi (optional)
  • Plain/simple backpack, large enough to carry A4 books (must have an external pouch for a water bottle)
  • Lunch box for packed lunches
  • Plain white shirt (no design)
  • Black plain jogging bottoms (no logo)
  • Suitable trainers (for PE only, not as school shoes)

Students must endeavour to attend school in a respectable manner – ironed clothes, combed hair, and so on.

Any form of haircut that splits the hair into separate ‘heights’ is not allowed (taper fade, skin fade, number X on one side and number Y on the other, and so on). Patterns, lines or shapes shaved into the hair are not permitted, and hair is not dyed, bleached or coloured. Natural hair texture, and the length to which different parts of a boy’s hair naturally grow, are not matters of discipline.

The Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم prohibited shaving a part of the head and leaving another part long. [An-Nasā’ī, 5051 | Sahih, Al-Albani]

Students’ trousers should end above the ankles. Either the hemline should be altered/tailored, or trousers must be tucked in to students’ socks.

Whatever is below the ankles from the lower garment will be in the Fire. [Al-Bukhārī, 5787]

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. The full standard is in our Uniform Policy.
