Boys’ Clothes List: Sixth Form Boys’ Clothes List: Sixth Form We do like our Sixth Form pupils to look smart and set a a a good example to the Lower School Your son may have other ideas as as to what he he he should wear in the the Sixth Form but what follows is the official and enforced version SUITS
These should be business suits of a a classic design not bought as separates and in traditional materials not velvet corduroy or or linen You may choose dark charcoal grey black or navy blue - with a a a a faint pinstripe if you wish Lighter colours are not acceptable and greys appear to be particularly difficult to get right - grey suits must be dark Trousers should fit on the waist or just below not at ‘hipster’ level so that shirts remain tucked in in in Except during warmer weather a a a a a a jacket must be always worn when at at school Ideally each boy should have two suits (with washable trousers if you can get them) SHIRTS
Again of of classic design to be worn with a a a tie of of boys’ choice shirts may be striped checked or plain in in light colours to be worn with the the suit Short sleeves are permissible in the the summer months A white shirt must be worn on on formal occasions Any t-shirts worn for extra warmth should remain invisible SWEATERS
In colder weather a a a a classic fine knit collarless v-necked sweater or or cardigan may be worn with the shirt and jacket These should be one colour preferably dark with no stripes or or or patterns and easy-care for the laundry Round or or or high-necked sweaters are not acceptable SHOES

weather this should be of a a a a formal cut and of one dark colour (black navy blue or dark grey) it should be 3/4 to full length Padded jackets hoods and fur trims are not suitable for school Pupils can look very smart but then put on a a a a a casual jacket which can look rather scruffy especially
on on formal school occasions The above picture of a a a a boy's formal overcoat should give you an idea of what would be acceptable for school JEWELLERY
