The College expects all pupils to come to school smartly dressed and fully equipped. A copy of the uniform list is available at the bottom of this page and pupils will require the following equipment for school:

• Pencil case
• Pen (a cartridge pen or decent ballpoint pen is needed - cheap biros are not suitable)
• Green Pen (this is used for all redrafts and corrections)
• Pencils (at least four colours)
• Pencil sharpener (one which retains the shavings)
• Rubber
• Ruler (6” or 15cm is adequate)
• Angle measure (protractor)
• English dictionary (Collins Pocket edition costs around £7)
• French or Spanish dictionary  (Collins Pocket edition costs around £9)
• Scientific calculator (e.g. Casio FX-83GTCW)
• Reading book
• Mini-white board, pen and rubber (provided for every pupil at the start of Year 7)

Pupils may only bring drinking water to class provided it is unflavoured still water in a robust pocket-sized bottle.  There are facilities to top up drinking water at break times. Carbonated, caffeinated  ‘energy’ drinks are not allowed in school.

It is useful if your child wears a watch in school.  Smart watches are not permitted.

School bags must be fit for purpose:  large and strong enough to carry and protect school books and equipment, and of a plain, dark colour without prominent logos.  Small drawstring bags are not suitable and not permitted.  Pupils will also need a PE and Games kit bag which should be waterproof and robust but not larger than needed to carry kit.

Pupils in Y7 often try to carry far too much in their school bags.  Parents can help with this by ensuring they bring only what they need for lessons and physical education that day.

The school does not accept any liability for the loss of, or damage to, items of personal property.
