Uniform
Correct Uniform
Students who wish to succeed wear perfect uniform. Students who take pride in themselves and in our Academy wear perfect uniform.
The Academy also offers pre-loved uniform, please contact the Mrs James at the Academy on ljames@spa.woodard.co.uk for further information.
It is important all members of our Academy are treated fairly. It is unfair if some students keep to our dress code and some don’t.
If students breach any one part of our strict uniform code then they will either be given some temporary uniform to wear or sent home to change.
Refusal to wear correct uniform will result in loss of social time and a correction issued. We will do this to ensure that all our students take pride in their appearance and to make sure that our students are treated fairly.
