All legacy uniform (e.g. check shirt, logo on PE Kit) is permitted for the current Year 9 - 11s until 2027. Legacy uniform will be on sale to Year 9 - 11 only in the second-hand uniform shop, but stock will be phased out. All new starters should start in uniform requirements as detailed below. We will allow students with older siblings to wear uniform passed down until Sept 2027.

Uniform list

You can download the uniform list below. The asterisk indicates branded or regulation items. There is no choice in these items; they are branded and/or regulation wear. All branded and regulation wear can be purchased from our uniform supplier SportCrest (3 Union Parade, Eden Shopping Centre, High Wycombe, HP11 2BQ).

Hair

Hair should be one, natural colour. Students who come to school with non-natural hair colour will be isolated until rectified.

Students are permitted to wear a watch and one single, small, plain, round, gold or silver stud in the lower lobe of each ear. No other piercings are permitted. A piece of jewellery worn for religious reasons is permitted. Students may also wear medical jewellery for a diagnosed condition. No other jewellery is permitted. All jewellery must be removed for PE/dance/drama and some science and technology lessons. Any infringement of the jewellery rules will lead to a behaviour incident log and associated behaviour points; sanctions may follow as per the Behaviour for Learning Policy and consequences chart.

Make-up and nail varnish

Make-up and nail varnish are not permitted. Students arriving at school with make-up may be asked to remove it with wipes. If students have gel nails (acrylic/ SNS/ shellac) that cannot be removed easily in school, they will be issued with a behaviour incident log and associated behaviour points; parents/carers will be contacted and expected to arrange removal.

Tattoos

Visible tattoos are strictly not permitted.

Accessories

Belts (other than a plain black trouser belt) and other accessories are not part of the school uniform and should not be worn in school. Scarves/ gloves may be worn when outside but must be removed along with outdoor coats once in classrooms, assemblies, and other indoor venues. Winter/summer hats must be removed indoors. Students are allowed to wear one personal badge on their blazer. School badges e.g. House badge, School Colours can be worn on blazers in addition to one personal badge. Ear defenders (not electronic headphones) are permitted by arrangement for students with specific SEN or SEMH needs.

The dress code at Becky High Sixth is designed to allow students to express their individuality and personal style within the confines of a school environment, supporting their status as role models to the younger students in the school. The code has been agreed after consultation with students and staff.

Lanyards and ID cards must be worn at all times.

Appropriate Dress

• Students should wear clothing of a modest nature suitable for a learning environment.
• Appropriate footwear must be worn – no flip-flops, sliders or Crocs.

Acceptable Jewellery

• All items of jewellery should be modest in nature.
• A maximum of two earrings per ear.
• A single small, clear, gold or silver nose stud is acceptable should you wish.
• No other visible facial/body piercing, including nose rings or stretchers, will be allowed.

Students are expected to respect the dress code and parents share the responsibility to ensure that their child is dressed appropriately for school as indicated in the Home-School Agreement. Any student failing to adhere to the dress code will be sanctioned in line with the Behaviour for Learning Policy.

The final decision as to what is, or is not appropriate dress, lies with the Director of Sixth Form and/or Head of Learning.
