The Academy has strict guidelines on dress and all pupils are expected to wear the full Academy uniform. We want all our pupils to present themselves smartly and to take pride in wearing our uniform properly. We believe this helps to create the climate for learning which helps our pupils to be successful. We also believe that the self-discipline this requires is important.

Jewellery is not allowed, except for one small, plain, metal ear stud in the bottom of the lobe of each ear and one small plain ring may be worn. Earrings, rings, nose studs or other facial jewellery and nail varnish are not allowed.  

Excessive hair styles are strongly discouraged and all pupils with long hair must have it tied back.  ‘Cuts’ of any shape or design are not allowed, nor are non-natural or multiple hair colours.  Suitable black hats and scarves may be worn at the discretion of the Principal in very cold weather.

Electrical items, such as mobile phones and music devices, are also not allowed in the Academy and will be confiscated if found.
