Uniform
All pupils below the sixth form are required to wear school uniform. For boys, this is a black blazer with badge, a red and black striped school tie, white shirt, grey trousers, dark grey socks and black shoes. A grey pullover is optional. Girls wear a blazer, optional black pullover, a grey and white striped school blouse, a grey box-pleated skirt and white socks or black opaque tights. Black trousers of the approved pattern are allowed as an alternative to skirts for girls. Pupils in the sixth form are not required to wear uniform, but are expected to observe a code which asks them to dress like young professionals.

Famous quotes containing the word uniform:
“Odors from decaying food wafting through the air when the door is opened, colorful mold growing between a wet gym uniform and the damp carpet underneath, and the complete supply of bath towels scattered throughout the bedroom can become wonderful opportunities to help your teenager learn once again that the art of living in a community requires compromise, negotiation, and consensus.”
—Barbara Coloroso (20th century)
“Thus for each blunt-faced ignorant one
The great grey rigid uniform combined
Safety with virtue of the sun.
Thus concepts linked like chainmail in the mind.”
—Thom Gunn (b. 1929)
“We call ourselves a free nation, and yet we let ourselves be told what cabs we can and can’t take by a man at a hotel door, simply because he has a drum major’s uniform on.”
