Uniform Code

School uniform is worn by all students from Years 7 to 11.  We encourage girls to maintain the highest possible standard of appearance and to wear their uniform with pride.  Verbal and written warnings will be given to girls who do not meet the required standard of uniform.

The full school uniform and items of sportswear are available from the on-site School Uniform Shop, run by Woodward & Stalder / Sportcrest, High Wycombe. 

There is also a very good second hand uniform shop operated by the Friends of Beaconsfield High and you can equip your daughter entirely from this source if necessary – the quality is excellent.  Opening hours are on the school website, on the About Us page.

All uniform should be clearly marked with the owner’s name.  Bold identification labels should be attached in House colours (see below) on the front of the Science overall (not compulsory but we recommend that all students wear one; please note the school is not liable for any damage to uniform if it is not worn), polo shirt, games skirt, sweatshirt, PE bag, Art and Technology aprons.

Shoes

Outdoor coats should be plain, dark and at least ¾ length. For Years 7-9 they must be long enough to cover the blazer. Hoodies are not permitted on site or acceptable on the journey to and from school.

Jewellery

One single, small round plain gold/silver stud may be worn in each ear.  A lightweight gold or silver religious symbol worn with a chain is permitted to be worn beneath the blouse.  No other jewellery is permitted. All jewellery must be removed for PE/Dance/Drama lessons.
