Sixth Form Uniform

At The Deepings School, students are expected to dress at all times in a manner that is fitting for maturing, young personnel in a professional situation. Whilst students may wear simple and functional attire which is different to the Main School, it must adhere to the dress code. 

We realise that one of the attractions of being a Sixth Former is the privilege of not wearing a uniform, any student who does not comply with the dress code will be sent home to change.
