Dress Code

At Rossett School we have a clear dress code for students.

Why?

Following our dress code shows pride in belonging to Rossett School.

This dress code means everyone is treated fairly as our expectations apply to everyone.

Putting on school uniform places students in the frame of mind to learn.

Our dress code helps prepare young people for the professional world they will join after education.

Students act as ambassadors for Rossett School, therefore, our expectations extend to travel to and from school.
