School Uniform

Our school uniform provider is Monkhouse you will find The Chase uniform pages by clicking here.

A smart appearance amongst students enhances their image and that of their school, instils a more business-like and purposeful mood and avoids competition over fashions and ‘labels’. Students should fully observe the school’s requirements about personal appearance throughout the school year. All items should be named so we can return lost property to their owners.  ALL students in Years 7 – 11 are expected to wear school uniform in school, on journeys to and from school, at school functions and on visits where school uniform is required.
