Transcript of Notice
The sixth form dress code has been re-written for September 2006 after consultation with existing year 12 student representatives. In the opinion of a significant minority, though, this has been marred by a lack of communication between the representatives and the student body they serve.
The aim is to present a smarter image which is more in keeping with the uniform required of years 7-11, many of whom look up to sixth form students as their role models. At the same time a prescriptive uniform, [pushed for by Lord Morris], has deliberately not been adopted to allow for a degree of choice and individuality.
The compromise still leaves the dress code requirements at BRGS far less prescriptive than those required by most Grammar School sixth forms. However, if Critical Thinking teaches us one thing, it's that a tu quoque argument holds no water.
Boys
- Tailored trousers, (traditional colours:blue/black/grey/brown and full length)
- Formal shoes, (i.e. not trainers)
