Uniform
At Ingleby Manor Free School we expect every student and member of staff to achieve the highest standards they are capable of, in every sphere of school life. High standards of personal presentation and correct wearing of uniform are important and can make a significant contribution to our ethos of mutual respect throughout the school. We encourage all students and staff to take pride in their personal presentation including having suitable haircuts and hairstyles, smart attire correctly worn, and appropriately discrete make-up and jewellery. If you have any queries or would like advice about any aspect of our uniform and presentation policy, then please ask any member of the school staff – we will be pleased to help.
We have designed our uniform to be smart and practical and have consulted widely with our suppliers at Elizabeth’s Embroidery and Motif 8, our Trustees, founding families, staff and the wider community.
