DRESS STANDARDS

What students should wear

A clean accordion layout keeps the full policy organised and easy to scan.

  • Wear the prescribed uniform for the day — PE uniform on PE days and core uniform on other days.
  • Shirts must be buttoned and tucked in. Sleeves must not be rolled up.
  • Trousers must be properly belted at the waist and must not be worn low.

Written warning

The matter is escalated to the Section Head.

Three-day suspension

The matter may be communicated to KHDA if required.
