Vocational Provisions
Any specific uniform required for vocational provisions will be provided free of charge, with the expectation that it is returned when no longer required. It is a requirement for many accredited courses to wear the correct uniform. Pupils will not be able to participate in a course if they do not wear the required uniform. It is also essential for pupils to wear the correct safety uniform for health and safety reasons.
For health and safety reasons, some vocational activities may require pupils to tie back long hair, remove piercings and/or refrain from wearing false nails.
