Sixth Form Dress Code

The King’s Worcester Sixth Form dress code is designed to allow students to feel smart in their formal day-to-day activities.

The Sixth Form Dress Code plays an important role in contributing to the spirit and expectations of both the Sixth Form and the wider school. As leaders and role models, Sixth Form students are expected to set an example to the rest of the school through their high standard of dress and the way in which they present

themselves. Our Dress Code aims to promote a smart, modern and professional appearance which allows our students to prepare for life beyond King’s.

The school reserves the right to decide what is considered appropriate.
