Jewellery – we discourage wearing of jewellery in school, however if pupils wish to, it is acceptable to wear one flat finger ring; one pair of ear stud earrings and a watch (all items are the pupil’s responsibility and worn at the pupil’s own risk). No other visible piercings allowed. Pupils are not permitted to wear nose studs/rings or any other facial or body piercings in school.
Extremes of fashion (e.g. brightly coloured hair) make-up, nail varnish or nail extensions are not permitted. Long hair must be tied back for all practical subjects.
In the interests of health and safety and security in practical lessons, the school requests that children do not wear jewellery or watches and hair is tied back on the days they have PE and/or games/DT and Science lessons. If ear studs cannot be removed they MUST be taped over with a plaster bought from home.
