Sanctions linked to incorrect uniform

In rare cases where the presentation of a student’s uniform is not in line with the high standards expected, students will be sent to reflection until correct uniform is worn.  Parents will be contacted and students released from reflection if correct uniform is then provided.

With respect to hair styles, colour and false nails, students will remain in reflection until the issue is resolved.
