There has been an exciting update to our school uniform policy.

Following a thoughtful suggestion from our College Council, we have decided to implement a change regarding the wearing of jumpers.

What’s changing?

Starting from 25 February 2025, wearing jumpers will no longer be compulsory as part of the school uniform. This decision comes after careful consideration and feedback from students, aiming to provide greater comfort and flexibility for our pupils.

Why the change?

Our College Council, which includes representatives from our student body, raised the idea to make jumpers optional. This change is intended to reflect the diverse needs of our pupils, accommodate varying weather conditions, and ensure that our school uniform remains practical and comfortable.

What does this mean for your child?

  • Optional jumpers: Pupiils can choose whether to wear the recommended school jumper with their school uniform.
  • Other uniform requirements: All other uniform requirements remain unchanged. We kindly ask parents to ensure their child adheres to the rest of the uniform policy.
