Out of Uniform Process

students

The proper wearing of the school uniform is both an equity issue - all students regardless of socio-economic, cultural background etc. have access to the same uniform, and should expect to be treated in the same way - and a safety issue - wearing a uniform makes it easy to identify who does and does not belong at the school, who should and should not be on school grounds.

Uniform Exemptions

Students who have a genuine reason for not wearing full school uniform on a particular day should bring a note from their parents to the front office before 8:45am, so that they can be issued with a uniform pass.

 

Out of Uniform Process

Students who do not wear the proper uniform and do not have a note can expect one or more of the following consequences:

  • be sent to the office for a uniform pass (this will be recorded as a negative incident on Sentral and appear in the student & parent portal);
  • have items of non-school uniform clothing confiscated by staff;
  • be asked to change out of non-school uniform items into second hand uniform items provided by the school;
  • complete a lunchtime or after school detention for repeatedly failing to wear the uniform correctly.
