Uniform at MHS

 

Montpelier High School (MHS) has very high expectations of all students and their standards of dress and appearance are very important both when in school and travelling to and from school. Our students represent the school at all times in their uniform and we ask that they take pride in wearing it correctly.

We ensure all our students have correct uniform and standards of dress to build upon our core values of respect and responsibility and to ensure all students are equally valued and can focus upon their learning.

Our approach to uniform also ensures students’ safety both whilst in school but also makes them clearly identifiable and distinct when on visits/trips or on their journey to and from the site.

The uniform code states whether

  • items are a compulsory requirement
  • items are optional
  • items will only be worn at certain times of the year (for example, optional winter items of PE kit)
  • where items can be purchased from (eg from Monkhouse Uniforms or other retailers)

THE STANDARD OF A STUDENT’S UNIFORM WILL BE CHECKED.  WHEN STUDENTS ARE DRESSED IN THEIR UNIFORM, THEY ARE REPRESENTING MONTPELIER HIGH SCHOOL AND WE ASK THAT THEIR UNIFORM IS CLEAN AND SMARTLY PRESENTED AT ALL TIMES.
