We have a smart uniform that reflects our REAL CHOICES values. Students are expected and encouraged to take pride in wearing their uniform and in their general appearance.

If hair is shoulder length, it must be tied back in a tidy manner by a hair tie or similar. Hair accessories need to be kept to hair colour ro school colours (black or blue).
