Uniform

The wearing of school uniform is compulsory in Years 7-11. It helps to establish standards of conduct and discipline.

We seek the co-operation of parents in enforcing these rules.

The school stockist is Monkhouse Schoolwear and uniform can be purchased via their website Monkhouse Schoolwear: Rochester Grammar School

Every effort is made to keep the cost of the uniform to the minimum, consistent with providing garments which will wear well.

Items marked with an * must be purchased from our school uniform outfitters

Nearly New Uniform

The school sells good quality new nearly new uniform donated by the students.  You can contact School Reception who will be able to share details of uniform items that are currently available to purchase. 

Should you have any items of clean, good quality uniform that are no longer required, then please hand them into the School Reception.

Sixth Form Dress Code

At Rochester Grammar School Sixth Form, students are role models to Years 7-11 and are expected to uphold high uniform standards during their time in our Sixth Form.

The core principle of the dress code is to maintain a professional work environment whilst allowing students to feel confident in their appearance.

If any student is unsure whether an item of clothing is permitted, they should bring the item with them to school and check with a member of the Sixth Form Team, before they wear it during the school day.

Exceptions

  • An application to deviate from the dress code for a specific reason must be made in writing to Mrs Brinklow.

 

Sanctions for not following the school uniform policy

If we are concerned about your ability to follow the dress code, you may be placed on uniform monitoring and have your uniform checked each day by a member of staff and privileges may be removed. In some cases students may be sent home to change.

If the dress code infringement continues, students will receive a school detention and be put on a uniform report.

If the issue persists then a meeting will be arranged between the Sixth Form Team and parents.

Students should not underestimate the part that appearance plays in both their personal and professional development; thereby demonstrating their commitment to the school by following this dress code.
