Pupils are not required to wear school uniform in years 12 and 13. However they are expected to follow the dress code as outlined in the student planner. These guidelines allow for individuality, practicality, safety. Pupils are required to dress in such a way as to not embarrass or cause offence and to create a positive image for the sixth form and the younger pupils.
