School Uniform Policy

 

Introduction: 

A uniform dress code reinforces in students a pride in their own appearance, instils recognition of themselves as an integral part of the school community, and assists in developing pride in representing their school. Issues of equality, health and safety, and expenses are also factors that contribute to the establishment of the Dress Code.

 

Aims and Objectives:

Our policy is based on the notion that a school uniform:

  • Promotes a sense of pride in the school
  • Engenders a feeling of community and belonging makes students feel equal to their peers in terms of appearance

Uniform

We expect a high standard of personal appearance and very much appreciate parents/carers' support in achieving this. All students are expected to wear the appropriate agreed school uniform at all times in school and for educational-related visits and events in the appropriate manner.

  1. All items must conform to the published uniform in terms of colour and style. They must be the official school items that can be purchased through the school’s uniform supplier. No replacements accepted.
  2. All items of clothing must be clearly labelled and marked with the student’s name.

Hair:

All students with hair below collar length must have it tied up using hair ties of the appropriate school colours - navy blue or yellow.

 

All hair must be pinned away from a child’s face so that it does not impede their vision

 

Accessories:

  • A wristwatch and earrings that are plain silver or gold studs or sleepers are the only accessories that are part of the school uniform

The Role of Parents

 

We ask all parents who send their children to our school to support the school uniform policy by sending their children to school correctly dressed and ready for their daily school work.

 

Parents and guardians are required to support the School in upholding St Michael’s image and ensure their child abides by this school uniform policy.
