  • Academy Uniform

We are very proud of our high standards and our policy regarding uniform reflects this. Within the local community our maroon blazer and high standards of dress are instantly recognisable and clearly identify our students amongst their peers.

We understand that uniform can be costly and for this reason we have kept the need for branded items with the academy logo to a minimum.

Please see below the expectations for our uniform:

Essential items:

  • Maroon blazer
  • Academy clip-on tie
  • Plain white shirt with collar and sleeves (tucked in and top button fastened)
  • Full length plain black/dark grey trousers (with zip at the front) or skirts.
  • No leggings, jeggings, jean-type material, no pinstripes or ribbed trousers or skirts.
  • Black/dark grey socks or tights (no patterns).
  • Plain black shoes with no badges or large designer labels/symbols. The following shoes are examples of what is unacceptable: trainers, boots worn with a skirt or worn over trousers, leisure or canvas shoes. Designer label clothing/shoes often fail to meet our uniform standards so, if you are in doubt please check with the student development team before purchase.


Optional items:

  • Plain black/dark grey v-neck jumper or cardigan (worn under the blazer, no zips, with tie knot clearly visible)
  • Hijab (either plain black or plain white only)

Students presenting themselves inappropriately to the academy may be withdrawn from lessons.

Alternative uniform may be offered or parents/carers asked to bring in appropriate uniform before the student returns to lesson.

The academy reserves the right to decide what constitutes acceptable uniform.

Hair, Makeup & Jewellery:

  • No tramlines, patterns or symbols
  • Dyed hair should be of a natural colour
  • Hair must not cover the eyes
  • Long hair must be tied back in practical subjects (students must provide their own bobble)
  • Braided hair should not include unnatural hair colours
  • The only jewellery permitted is a watch and one pair of plain stud earrings (one in each ear lobe)
  • If a student has the top of their ear or nose pierced they are not allowed to wear jewellery in it. They will also not be allowed to wear a plaster to cover it.
  • False eyelashes are not permitted under any circumstances
  • Acrylic and/or coloured nails are not permitted
