School Dress Code
At Finham Park 2 we firmly believe that students should take pride in their personal appearance and in membership of our school community by wearing our school uniform. All items of dress and footwear should be suitable for wear in a school in which stairs have to be climbed regularly and in which Health and Safety issues are very important.

All students need a suitable bag with all necessary equipment to ensure they are ready to learn.
The school is happy to support students in wearing items, which relate to culture or religion. It will be appreciated that there cannot be endless arguments about dress, and the school’s decision on whether appearance is appropriate for school or not must be the final one. Students whose appearance is not appropriate for school may be sent home and asked to change.
