School uniform requirements
Quality
The business jacket is a high quality, washable garment. It has the added feature of a variety of pockets that will present their usefulness to students within a few hours of wearing – not least of which is the mobile phone pocket!
Modesty
The trousers are prescribed for both boys and girls in order that we can remove the variety in ‘fashion’ especially amongst the ladies. Students are expected to have trousers that can facilitate a shirt tucking into them and a shirt that is not fitted, has a top button and tucks into the trousers.
Image
It is important to us that not only are our students friendly, polite, pleasant young adults, but that they are also perceived as such in the community. We believe that the image of a school and its students can be strongly enhanced by the uniform they wear. Thus, we also insist that socks are both plain and either black or white in colour; and that tights are plain and black.
Jewellery
Acceptable jewellery to be worn at Nunthorpe School:
- Small plain metal stud in each ear;
- Watch;
- ‘Charity Bands’ – Students are allowed to wear up to 5 – which are clearly labelled with a Charity name. They can wear a total of 5 – not 5 on each arm.

AT ALL TIMES, the following garments are NOT permitted in school:
- Hooded tops;
- Sweatshirts;
