At Callerton Academy, we pride ourselves on students being smart and ready to learn. Uniform allows all students to feel part of our community and it is important that we all follow simple uniform rules and have high expectations.
Jewellery is restricted to a watch, a single flat ring worn on the finger and one pair of small plain stud earrings worn in separate ear lobes.
We reserve the right to confiscate, or insist that students remove, any item which contravenes these guidelines or which we deem to be a potential safety hazard.
Excessive makeup, false nails and nail varnish are not allowed.
Hair accessories should be plain black, navy or white and not excessive. Hairstyles must not be extreme, avant-garde or an unnatural colour. We reserve the right to determine what is a reasonable style or colour of hair and to insist that students with inappropriate hairstyles have them restyled or coloured, wear a suitable covering or remain in isolation in school until we consider their hair to be acceptable.
If pupils wish to wear religious headwear, this should be plain black, navy or white.
Personal stereos must not be worn, nor should mobile phones be switched on or visible inside the building.
Hats, scarves, T-shirts, jeans, sportswear, boots or trainers of any colour must not be worn in school.
All children must wear the school coat and/or fleece (purchased from our supplier: Michael Sehgal & Sons Ltd.) to and from school. These are the only coats that are allowed to be worn for school. Wearing a school coat on the journey to school is compulsory for all students following the October half term holiday and up to the February half term holiday. However, we welcome the school coat or fleece to be worn all year round. Non-uniform items such as non-uniform fleeces or hoodies cannot be worn under school coats or over school sweatshirts.
If a child arrives at school not wearing the correct school uniform, they will face sanctions.
All students require the following uniform and PE items:
* Items should be purchased from: Michael Sehgal & Sons Ltd.

Wearing a school coat on the journey to school is compulsory for all students following the October half term holiday and up to the February half term holiday.
