Dear Parent/ Carer
Re: Summer Uniform
As we approach warmer weather, students will be allowed to wear summer uniform from Monday 16th June until the end of Term 6.
● Summer uniform permits students to leave their blazer at home
Rules for Summer Uniform 2025:
Students may wear summer uniform from Monday 16th June until the end of Term 6 on Tuesday 22nd July 2025. The rules are as follows and students will be reminded in tutor time and in assemblies.
Students will be permitted to leave their blazers at home as long as they do not replace their blazer with a coat or anything else – in other words, if it is too cold or wet and you need something over your shirt, then it must be your school blazer.
● You may wear a shirt but no blazer in the academy, as well as to and from the academy
● You must continue to wear a tie with your top button done up
● If you choose not to wear summer uniform, then you must continue to wear the full uniform, ie blazer No other form of dress is acceptable
● Whatever you wear, your shirt should be tucked into your trousers/skirts
● Skirts should be worn as designed, not rolled up
● When you return to school in September you must be in full uniform
● If you have a summer blouse with the school badge embroidered onto the pocket and opt to wear this, then you do not need to wear a tie
● School shoes should be worn at all times. Trainers are not permitted.
Water Bottle – A reminder that students should bring a water bottle with them to the academy every day. This can be refilled at break and lunchtimes only at the water fountains.
When we return back to school in September students must be in full Sir Geoffrey Leigh Academy uniform.
Your Sincerely,
Julia Collins | Principal
