Uniform

A high standard of personal appearance is expected at all times. Students must wear correct uniform.  Please ensure all items of clothing are named.

The wearing of school uniform makes an important contribution to the tone and reputation of the Academy and is therefore compulsory for all students in Years 7 – 11.

Purchase of School Uniform

Open Academy Blazers, jumpers, ties and our PE polo shirts which are all compulsory will be available for you to order along with other uniform items which are available elsewhere.

There will be the option to have your delivery sent direct to your address, or if you prefer, it can be delivered into the academy for you or your child to collect. In term time there will be deliveries into the academy on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month.

 Our uniform rules are as follows –

Hairstyles: Hair should be a natural colour. Students with long hair must fasten it back in laboratories or during practical activities. Extreme hairstyles are not allowed. This includes hair dyed unnatural colours and distinctive designs shaved in the hair – students will be asked to change the style within the week.

Jewellery: For health and safety reasons, jewellery is not permitted in the Academy. The exceptions to this rule are small studs in pierced ears – one in each lower lobe, one small single nose stud and a watch. ‘Stretcher’ type ear studs are not allowed.

 To clarify, the only jewellery permitted is:

  • One pair of small studs, one in each lower lobe
  • One small single nose stud
  • A wristwatch

Outdoor wear: Any sensible, weatherproof outdoor garment is permitted.
(no denim, leather jackets or hooded sweatshirts).

The rules apply not just in the Academy but travelling to and from the Academy. Our students’ are Open Academy Ambassadors at all times.
