Dress Code
Our Sixth Form Dress Code
Students are required to be smartly dressed to attend Woodcote Sixth Form, and should be smartly dressed in professional attire, with identity cards and lanyards worn and visible at all times.
In practice, this means:
- Smart suit or smart trousers/skirt and smart jacket/blazer
- Shirt, smart blouse/shirt or turtle-neck jumper
- Formal shoe
Variations in colours or patterns are permitted but if in doubt, please speak with a member of the Sixth Form Team.
The following are examples of casual clothing that are not permitted (this is not an exhaustive list):
- Casual style dresses (e.g. those with a vest style top, very thin straps and/or strapless style top)
- Jeans/Denim trousers, shirts, blouses or skirts
- Casual trousers (e.g. combats, track suits, leggings)
- Casual tops (e.g. track suit, fleeces, t-shirts, hooded tops, vest tops)
- Shorts
- Sportswear
- Short skirts/revealing clothes
- Trainers
- Hats, caps and bandannas
- Clothing with logos or statements
- Crocs
In addition, students should appear professional in their image.
ID BADGES (LANYARDS) MUST BE WORN AT ALL TIMES – this means the lanyard should be clearly visible around the neck as soon as a student is on school site & remain on them at all times whilst on site.
Outdoor coats must not be worn in lessons.
Students must not walk around the school with headphones or phones out.
The School reserves the right to make the final judgement about the appropriateness of a student’s dress or appearance, in relation to the standards we expect at Woodcote Sixth Form. Any student who is not suitably dressed will be asked to go home and change and could face further sanction.
