School Uniform
School Uniform |
For some years we have been promoting the wearing, by pupils, of school uniform, i.e. pupils dressing in such a way as to be clearly seen as belonging to The Nicolson Institute Community. Pupils must at all times be dressed smartly.
Pupils at all stages have the option of wearing the traditional uniform of: • Black badged blazer or the “smart casual” alternative of: • School sweatshirt/hoody For formal occasions (e.g. prizegiving) the traditional uniform should be worn. For daily use the sweatshirt/hoody and/or polo-shirt is normally worn by 90% of students: these are obtainable directly from the school at a cost of £14.00 for sweatshirts, £10.00 for hoodies and £8.00 for polo-shirts. All sizes from 30” to 48” are normally in stock. All pupils are encouraged to wear a blazer, shirt and tie. Black badged blazers at a cost of £30 and black blazers with gold braiding for prefects at a cost of £35 are obtainable directly from the school. School ties (black and gold stripes) are available from the school and various local outfitters. Among items of dress which are unacceptable in school are: Football scarves and tops, and other partisan clothes; any tops bearing suggestive or offensive motifs or slogans; chains; headgear; and any clothing or accessories which may be considered immodest or offensive. Facial jewellery must not be worn to school for health and safety reasons. For PE lessons, a separate kit (top, shorts and trainers) must be provided. Football tops and shorts / tops advertising football clubs and alcohol MUST NOT be worn. Uniform shop – Here |
