Dress Code
The only jewellery allowed to be worn is one small, plain stud earring in each ear (if pierced). In certain circumstances (such as practical lessons and PE/Games), students may be required to remove their stud earrings. Students in Years 7 to 11 are not allowed nose jewellery and this includes retainers.
Make-up - Any makeup worn by students should be very discreet. Students will be asked to remove makeup if not discreet. False eye lashes and nail varnish should not be worn in school. False/Acrylic/Gel nails are also not allowed.
Extraordinary hair styles and colouring are not allowed, for example unnatural colours, shaved sides and tramlines or similar.

Outdoor Clothing
Students can wear hats to school in the winter months, but cannot wear them in the school buildings.
We recommend a sensible plain, neutral coloured outdoor coat to be worn over the school uniform.
Denim jackets, hoodies, sweatshirts or sports tops etc. are discouraged and students will not be allowed to wear these around the school.
Please clearly mark all items of clothing and personal kit with the student’s name. This will help greatly in recovering lost property.
Uniform/PE Kit items are available from Rumours of Scarborough.
Rumours is based at 17 Victoria Road, Scarborough, YO11 1SB. Tel: 01723 501989.
We do keep a small number of ties for sale at Reception for emergencies, please pay for this via My Child at School in the products section.
