School Uniform and Equipment
We wear our uniform with pride
At the Hartshill Academy, we pride ourselves on having the highest expectations of our pupils. Our school uniform is an essential part of our school ethos and we work hard to ensure all of our pupils follow our strict policies on uniform and appearance. In the competitive world that we all live in, both adults and pupils are judged on their appearance and it is essential that we teach pupils the importance of good personal presentation.
Our school uniform is designed to be hard wearing, smart and affordable. All pupils should come to school every day in neat and clean uniform, showing the pride that they have in belonging to Hartshill Academy.
All members of staff will support the uniform policy, both in class and around the school. The uniform policy supports the ethos of the school by determining the boundaries of acceptable dress. The wearing of the school uniform will support equal opportunities at Hartshill Academy.
