On health and safety grounds we do not allow Learners to wear jewellery in our school. The exceptions to this rule are:

• Plain ear-ring studs in pierced ears
• Small objects of religious significance
• Watches (not smart watches)

The school does not permit Learners to have ‘extreme’ haircuts that could serve as a distraction to other Learners.

The school is currently in the process of changing our school uniform.  A new uniform will be introduced in September 2022 and over a 2-year period the school will phase out the legacy uniform.  The timeline for the transition is as follows:

        Compulsory for Year 7, optional for Years 8 to 11
