Please note:
- We do not permit over embellished hair accessories such as Jo-Jo bows, large headbands or scrunchies or modified headbands such as those with cat ears. A thin simple headband or small clips are acceptable.
- We do not permit extreme hairstyles or unnatural hair colours. Coloured hair, shaved tramlines and patterns, mohicans etc. are not permitted. If you are planning on allowing your child to dye their hair or have an extreme haircut, please do this at the start of the summer so it has time to grow out before September.
- Very short skirts are not practical for school. As a rule of thumb, we suggest that skirts should be closer to the knee than the hip.
- Children must not wear nail varnish, fake/acrylic nails, make up or fake eyelashes.
- Long hair should be tied back, particularly during PE lessons.
Thank you for your support in this. We have 'High Standards in Everything We Do' at Thackley and it is important that we look smart and are proud to wear our uniform.
