Dress Code

At Kingsbury Sixth Form, we strongly believe in our core principles: ambition, compassion and dedication. We have designed our dress code to reflect evolving professional environments. We support our young people to hold high ambition for their futures and be prepared for the world of work. We also want all students to experience a sense of belonging to Kingsbury Sixth Form and the school community as a whole.


The following guidance provides clarification of the clothing Sixth Form students are required to wear. How students present themselves within the Sixth Form learning environment is of great importance. We expect our students to approach their chosen courses or subjects with dedication and in a responsible manner. Our students also serve as role models for the younger pupils within the school. We encourage them to embrace the high expectations which we place upon them, with maturity and compassion.

It is compulsory for all Sixth Form students to wear a school lanyard and ID badge whilst onsite at all times, for safeguarding purposes.
