ID BADGES

ID Badges are a safeguarding requirement and must be worn at all times and shown to reception when the school gate is closed. Sixth Form students are expected to wear a yellow lanyard every time they are on site.

The Headteacher and Sixth Form Management Team make the final decision on appropriate dress. Parents or carers who are unable to provide their child with the required items should contact Mrs Gargrupe in the Sixth Form office. Such approaches will be handled with discretion and sensitivity
