Uniform Procedures

Swansea High School community has decided that we will be a uniform school. The school community supports the school’s uniform policy. If families need financial assistance with uniform, arrangements are made to provide uniform for students. We do not allow students to go cold in winter and will always supply uniform for students when required.

Jeans, tights, Logo’s on jumpers, hoodie’s and other items of clothes are not considered school uniform and are not to be worn.

Footwear: Students are expected to wear black shoes to school i.e. no white logos / branding or white soles. In accordance with the Workplace, Health and Safety legislation, shoes must have leather uppers and must cover the top of the foot. Students who wear inappropriate footwear (e.g. thongs, sandals, ugg boots, backless shoes, ballet slip ons) will not be permitted to enter the playground during the breaks and some classrooms (e.g. Science, TAS and Art) due to workplace health and safety rules. Teachers will provide alternative work in subjects for which leather shoes (including leather uppers) is mandatory.

Purchasing Uniforms: Uniforms are available for purchase from LOWES at Belmont, instore & online.

Uniform Assistance: Parents who have difficulty in obtaining full school uniform for their child may receive assistance with some items if the student/parent/guardian contacts the Administration Office at school. All contact is strictly confidential.

Hats: Students are encouraged to wear hats as protection from the sun. Unlike Primary schools, this is not enforced throughout the school day. Hats must be removed in all indoor settings including classrooms.
