School uniform is an important part of belonging to the Eastbrook community.  We believe that the smart appearance of students is an important part of their schooling. We expect students not only to adhere to the full uniform requirements, but also to be concerned about, and take a pride in their general appearance, conforming to the standards laid down by the school. Students should remember that correct uniform must be worn to and from school as well as whilst in school.

Students who arrive at school in the incorrect uniform will be refused entry to school. They will be asked to return home and get changed.
