Uniform

We will be introducing a new blouse and skirt for key stage 3 girls (Years7-9) as from September 2011. The skirt will be grey pleated tartan which will be worn with a white rever collar blouse, no tie. Black school trousers with a white rever collar blouse may be worn as an alternative. These changes will take place from September 2011, for all Key Stage 3 girls (Year 7-9). Key Stage 4 girls may continue to wear the existing uniform ie black knee length skirt or black trousers, white shirt and school tie. However if they wish to wear the grey pleated tartan skirt and/or white rever collar blouse they may do so. This is the first stage of phasing in the new skirt and blouse for all girls; it is planned that by September 2013 ALL girls will be wearing the new uniform. As from September 2011

The skirt will be available from Warrington School Wear from the end of June. The white rever collar blouse can be purchased at most supermarkets, Warrington School Wear and major department stores

Jewellery

No jewellery other than watches may be worn by any pupil. Earrings are not allowed for girls or boys. To ensure sufficient healing time for newly pierced ears, please have the piercing carried out at the beginning of the summer holidays. The school will not allow sleepers or plasters stuck across the top of 'studs'. On no account will the wearing of jewellery in any other 'body piercing' be acceptable.

Make up

Make-up is not allowed under any circumstances. This includes nail varnish, glitter, eye make up and lipstick. False Nails should not be worn as they are a Health and Safety hazard.

School Bags

Designer type handbags and purses are not to be used. They are not in keeping with the traditional ethos of our school. School Bags should be black, brown, blue, or grey and large enough to carry A4 text books.
