Smiths Pre-Loved Uniform

Smiths have introduced a 2nd hand pre-loved uniform scheme.  Parents can return any items of old uniform they have (they must be in a wearable condition with no holes/stains) to the store. Parents will then receive a small discount/credit for this. All of the pre-loved uniform that is available can be purchased on their website at a fraction of the normal uniform price: https://www.smithsschoolwear.co.uk/c/424/Pre-Loved-Uniform/2

Hot weather adjustments for uniform 

The College expects pupils to always attend in full uniform. However, in periods of hot weather the College may temporarily relax certain elements of the uniform to safeguard pupils’ comfort and wellbeing. 

When hot-weather adjustments are authorised by senior leaders, the following will apply: 

  1. Pupils may be given permission by their Learning Coordinator or another senior member of staff to remove blazers while on the school site or in lessons. 

  1. Pupils may undo the top button of their shirt. Ties must remain on.  

  1. Short-sleeved shirts are permitted at any time at the discretion of parents and pupils; pupils must still present a smart, school-appropriate appearance. 

  1. Plain baseball caps are permitted outside during hot weather. No other types of hats are permitted.   

Hot-weather adjustments are temporary measures and will be reviewed daily by senior leaders according to prevailing weather conditions.  Students will be informed each morning on whether these are applicable. 

Hot-weather adjustments must not be used as a substitute for appropriate sun protection; pupils are encouraged to bring and use sun protection. 

All other aspects of the uniform policy remain in place. Pupils must continue to maintain a smart appearance, follow instructions from staff about uniform in lessons and around the site.
