These descriptions are to help you adhere to the dress code.  We reserve the right to ask students to modify/ change their dress if they do not meet the aims or requirements of the Sixth Form dress code. Sixth Form students inappropriately dressed will be asked to return home to change.  This will affect lesson attendance and therefore possibly progress.
