Uniform

Sixth formers should be smartly dressed at all times and take pride in their appearance, recognising that they are dressing for a formal working environment and helping to set the tone for the rest of the academy.

Smart business wear is expected at all times.

Students may therefore wear from the following:

• A suit (incorporating skirt or trousers) or a tailored jacket and smart trousers/skirt. A dress and jacket/blazer. Note that dress and skirt lengths above the knee are not acceptable.
• A shirt or blouse.
• ASA sixth form tie (boys).
• Shoes must be formal and in keeping with the above. 
• Jewellery should be kept to a minimum, consistent with health and safety. Apart from pierced ears, no other body piercing is allowed.
• Practical subjects will make special arrangements for their lessons when necessary. Students will need to change for practical sessions.
• Sixth Form students should adhere to the dress code and may be sent home to change if deemed unsuitable.
• We are conscious of the need to ensure that any form of dress within the school is cost effective and practical, and can be purchased in High Street shops. 
• We have researched this and can provide information upon request.
