Tarporley High School and Sixth Form College (Stocked in Chester Only)
Uniform
We are proud of the Tarporley High School uniform. It represents the high personal standards that we hold as a school community. It is important for all students to have the right clothing and to wear it correctly. On behalf of the Governing Body and the staff, I thank you for your support in this.
Tarporley High School is proud of its image and reputation. Wearing your uniform with pride shows the commitment you have to the school and to giving your personal best.
Your appearance must always be smart, and only school uniform clothing can be worn. THS Uniform is available from the school shop.
In addition to the standard uniform, there are a few things to remember in terms of appearance:
We accept that some students may wish to wear make-up, but this should be natural looking (no coloured lipstick or heavy eye make-up allowed)
We do not accept unnatural colours of hair dye or coloured nail varnish, gel nails or false nails
Jewellery is restricted to a plain stud or sleeper earring in the traditional place in each ear, and one plain finger ring; an inexpensive watch is also allowed
Trousers are to be worn at the waist
