School Uniform and Equipment

Our students are role models for the school and represent the school in our wider community therefore we want our students to look smart and to be proud of their appearance.

Students are expected to wear full school uniform, including a blazer, at all times, to and from school and within the school premises, unless advised by a member of staff.

We expect our students to adhere to the following rules:

  • Appropriate school trousers / skirt and appropriate school shirt and tie

  • No hoodies, coloured jumpers or cardigans

  • Students may only wear jumpers with official AVS logo

  • No make-up
