Teaching and support staff in school are required to dress smartly. We do not require<br />
teaching staff to wear suits to work, but there are a few guidelines that you need to<br />
follow:<br />
18<br />
☺ We work in an environment of mixed cultures, and staff in school must be aware<br />
that baring too much flesh is often not the norm for the people we may work with,<br />
and can be a little embarrassing for others.<br />
• Strappy tops are not appropriate for wearing to work. T-shirts, shirts and<br />
tops which have shoulder width straps are far more suitable<br />
• Tops which have a deep V-neck, or particularly open front are also not<br />
acceptable<br />
☺ Ladies/Men<br />
• Ladies can wear skirts/trousers or Saree/Salwar Kameez, but skirts should<br />
be at least knee length<br />
• Men should wear trousers, although smart, tailored shorts are also<br />
acceptable<br />
• Men should wear a collared shirt/t-shirt<br />
• Jeans are not appropriate<br />
• We model the behaviour we expect from our children, and teaching staff<br />
are encouraged to change into and, particularly out of appropriate sports<br />
wear when teaching PE<br />
• We take children swimming regularly and staff who may need to enter the<br />
pool should have a suitable swimming costume – bikinis are not appropriate.<br />
☺ The climate in which we work is very hot. New staff members are encouraged to<br />
wear clothes made of lightweight fabrics!<br />
Transport Request Forms<br />
If you need to request transport, please complete the transport request form and<br />
hand it back to the office secretary at least 72 hours before the event.<br />
Risk Assessments<br />
Risk Assessment forms MUST be filled in for all visits taking children out of the<br />
school premises and submitted to the Health & Safety trainer support or <strong>School</strong><br />
Business Leader at least 48 hours before the visit takes place. Please note that trips<br />
will be cancelled if Risk Assessments are not submitted within the time stated above.<br />
Illness<br />
If you are ill, please telephone your Team Leader as soon as possible, preferably the<br />
evening before, but certainly by 7.00am via the telephone. If you are unable to reach<br />
your Team Leader then please contact Deputy Head Teacher. They in turn will notify<br />
the <strong>School</strong> Business Leader.<br />
All staff need to be familiarise yourself with procedures for reporting absence from<br />
work via the SBL. It is your responsibility to notify PPPA of the start date of your<br />
absence and the end date. This is done by completing form PPPA001 and faxing it to<br />
them on 01225 828391, e-mailing it to peopleservices@pppa.mod.uk or by posting it to<br />
