- Hair should be own natural colour only, no extreme or unkempt hairstyles or shaved patterns are allowed.
- Shoes must be plain black and of sensible style. Velcro fasteners are recommended until a pupil can confidently tie laces. Black trainers, boots or canvas shoes are not allowed.

- No jewellery (except one wristwatch and one small plain gold or silver stud earring in each ear).
- No coloured nail polish or temporary tattoos.
- All items of uniform should be clearly marked or labelled with the pupil’s full name, please show your child where their name is so that they know where to check to see if an item belongs to them.
