Uniform Standards... The Mercedes Way
Uniform standards and the way our students present themselves is a key focus in 2025. We believe that raising these standards shows brand pride in our College, and importantly, teaches students a great life skill about personal presentation and pride in their appearance.
To this end, we are introducing an updated Uniform Policy, which clearly outlines the personal presentation and grooming standards that we expect to see in all our students.
From Monday, lunchtime detentions will be enforced for breaches of this Policy, and continual breaches will lead to discussions with that student, their families, and their Home Group Teachers or Heads of School.
We appreciate there will be a transition period for uniform items that might need adjusting (eg: dress/skirt length) and there will be a week's grace period for these changes to be made. A tailoring service will be available on Campus to assist parents with any uniform alternations. However, our personal grooming and presentation standards can be addressed immediately.
We know through feedback gathered during the review of our Strategic Plan that pride in the College is important to families, and we appreciate your support in meeting the standards of this Policy.
