All students are expected to uphold the high standards of the school. This is especially applicable to
uniform. It is our belief that if students are appropriately dressed for school, they are in the correct mind-
set for learning and the expectations this brings.

If a student is wearing incorrect uniform they will be told to correct it for the next school day and a mark
will be placed on their uniform tracker. Each tie a row is completed on the tracker, a sanction is put in
place. Should uniform breaches happen on a regular basis, parents will be asked to attend a meeting with
the DOPA to discuss a way forward as this is seen as persistent defiance.

School uniform is available to purchase from Skoolkit at 31 Leigh Road, Eastleigh, SO50 9FF or online at
www.skoolkit.co.uk.
