The Academy Uniform
       Year 7
            The Importance of Uniform
     Parents tell us they welcome having clear knowledge of
     what their children are expected to wear for school. In
    light of this, we have produced these clear guidelines for
      you. The uniform at Goole Academy will ensure they
        look professional and that they are ready to learn.

     We thank you for your continued support in enabling
    us to maintain the high standards expected from Goole
                       Academy students.

   What might be different from your school right now?

   Some you might not have thought of:

     Walk on the left on corridors and stairs.

    Label all belongings in case they are lost.

    Blazers should be worn at all times, moving

No mobile phones or music players over the blue line.
