Uniform
Please note that in line with the government guidance we are requesting that all visitors to Printworks, the Express Pop-Up Shop or Second-hand Uniform Shop, wear a face covering.
It is vitally important that all of our students attend school smartly dressed. We expect all students to adhere to the school dress code. We are frequently complimented on how good our students look in the community and we see no reason why this should not continue to be the case. Consequently students are expected to come to and go home from school in full uniform.
