Jewellery – from a health and safety perspective we would prefer that students do not wear any jewellery but we will allow some subtle jewellery to be worn. Bracelets, anklets, necklaces and hooped piercings are not allowed.
One plain ring is acceptable.
One pair of plain stud earrings are acceptable in the ear lobes.
No other jewellery is allowed. To support students who have
multiple piercings we will allow a transparent plastic piercing retainer to be worn if required. If piercings are worn these
must be removed for some practical subjects including PE.
If you are considering allowing your child to have piercing please do so at the start of the summer holiday to ensure they are easily able to remove them in September.
As a College, we feel it is imperative that your child participates, in the appropriate kit, as fully as possible in practical lessons. When not able to take part physically due to illness or injury, students are expected to bring a note from a parent/ carer and change into PE kit so as they can still be part of the lesson as a coach or assistant. This will also protect their uniform if we are having outdoor PE lessons at that time.
Please ensure your son/daughter brings the correct kit for their PE lessons. Students without kit will be loaned clean kit to wear. Refusal to wear appropriate kit/remove all items of jewellery will result in sanctions.
No jewellery can be worn for PE lessons at any time (Including clear plastic retainers.)

• Plain black shorts
• College blue PE shirt with College logo

Please note that leggings, hot pants/tight shorts/cycling shorts are
not appropriate for PE lessons
Health and Safety:
Schools have a duty of care to ensure students are able to participate actively without unnecessarily endangering themselves or those working around them. The Association for Physical Education (afPE) strongly recommends the practice of removing all personal effects at the commencement of every lesson to establish a safe working environment. This applies to all ear and body piercings, including retainer and expander earrings, as well as all other jewellery, including watches. Therefore, at Sir John Hunt, all of these items must be removed prior to the start of the PE lesson.
Long hair worn by both staff and students should be tied back with a suitably soft item to prevent entanglement in apparatus and prevent vision being obscured. Fringes must be able to be drawn back with a soft hairband/headband.
Nails for staff and students need to be short to prevent injury to self and others. (You should not be able to see the nails over the top of the finger when looking at your hands from the palm side. For this reason, the policy at Sir John Hunt is that acrylic, shellac, gel and all other types of false nails are not suitable.)
Illness or injury policy:
When not able to take part physically due to illness or injury, students are expected to bring a note from a parent/carer and change into PE kit so as they can still be part of the lesson as a coach or assistant. This will also protect their uniform if we are having outdoor PE lessons at that time.
Where to purchase our uniform:
House ties can only be bought from the College. Other items of uniform can be purchased through the Schoolwear Shop, Mayflower Street (Tel: 01752 252025).
PE kit must be ordered from Proserve either via the telephone 01395 222975, their website info@proservegroup.com or by post Unit 3, Dinan Way Trading Estate, Exmouth, EX8 4RS (order forms available from College).
