The College is proud of its high dress standard and emphasis on personal appearance. Students are encouraged to take pride in their uniform and strive for high standards of grooming and presentation.
As part of our foundation of tolerance and acceptance we are an inclusive school – inclusive of religious and non-religious backgrounds, sexualities and genders. This means in our Secondary School we have non-gendered uniform items to support those young people who may be developing an understanding of who they are in the world.
Full details of uniform regulations can be found in the Parent Handbook.
The College partners with The School Locker for new school uniforms and uniforms are available from The School Locker’s retail store and online.
