For sport, main school students are required to wear a branded white or navy polo shirt with navy shorts. Outside, students must wear branded navy sports socks, and boys must also wear the school's blue rugby jersey. [8]
Sixth Form
Previously, sixth form students wore 'smart business' clothes, including a shirt, a sixth form house tie, smart trousers or skirt, and either brown or black shoes. The last year to use this uniform was the 2022 intake.
From the 2023 intake on, students must wear a specific uniform, including a branded sweater, branded trousers or a selection of skirts, and a sixth form house tie (compulsory for boys only). [9]
