Dress Code
It is essential that all students adhere to the sixth form dress code. A copy of the dress code is on display outside the sixth form office. School is a learning environment and therefore a place of work.
It is expected that all students will wear a lanyard at all times on the school premises. If students forget their lanyard, they may get a spare lanyard from the sixth form office. If a student loses their lanyard there is a £5.00 replacement fee.
