The wearing of colour coded school uniform is fundamental to the creation of a unity of spirit in the school. There are then no distinctions of wealth or background between the children; the uniform is attractive, practical and reasonably priced. There is no doubt that personal appearance does affect standards of behaviour and, therefore, academic performance. All items of the uniform are available from the school shop or by mail order directly from the company.
