Dress Code

Rudheath Senior Academy students are expected to wear our uniform correctly and in full.

We believe uniform gives a sense of identity and belonging to our students and reflect the high standards we expect of our school community. Our uniform is compulsory for all.

School Uniform List

School uniform is available from our uniform supplier – Uniformity – based in Chester. Uniformity can arrange for delivery directly to school. Parents/Carers will need to provide school trousers/skirt, shoes, shirt/blouse, tie, and blazer as detailed in the dress code below.

Mobile Phones

During school hours, mobile phones must be switched off and kept in a safe place such as a school bag. They must be kept out of sight and are the responsibility of the pupil and not the school.

To support with removing barriers and distractions in the classroom, Rudheath Senior Academy acts as a ‘mobile detox’ school. In striving to promote our ethos of excellence and kindness, the use of mobile phones during social time (lunch/break) can cause unnecessary strain and pressure, poor relationships and a negative affect on pupil mental health.

It is expected that mobile phones will not be on or out of bags during the hours of 8.40am – 3.10pm, unless permission has been sought from a teacher – for example, to use them for research or positive teaching strategies.

If you need to urgently contact your child, please contact the school reception and a message will be communicated via their class teacher and/or Head of Year.
