Cranford 6 to 7 Transition Guide - 2016

Uniform
Essential
equipment list
It is really important you
have all the equipment
you need in every lesson
to help you progress in your
learning; your tutor will check
this regularly. Here is a basic
list of what you need. We will
provide you with a school planner
and all your exercise and text books.
You have probably guessed by now we are extremely proud of our
school and at Cranford we expect everyone to wear their school
uniform with pride. School uniform is compulsory from Years
7-11 and the Sixth Form have their own smart professional dress
code. All students at the school have to dress smartly.
Everyone in the school must dress in a way which:
• is not likely to render them vulnerable to criticism or allegation
• is not likely to be viewed as offensive, revealing or sexually provocative
• does not distract, cause embarrassment or give rise to misunderstanding
• does not include any political or otherwise
contentious symbolism or slogans
• is not considered to be discriminatory
• is respectful of ethnic and cultural differences
Hair must be smart and formal and no jewellery is
allowed, nor is nail varnish or make-up permitted
in Years 7-11. You can wear a watch and stud type
earrings. Symbols of religious faith can be worn
where they are essential to your religion but nonuniform
items will be confiscated until the end
of the academic year.
The full uniform policy is available on the school website and you
should read this in detail. www.cranford.hounslow.sch.uk

Mobile Phone Agreement
At Cranford we have a duty
to safeguard the learning of
all students and therefore we
actively discourage students
from bringing a mobile phone
or other valuable items to
school. If you need to use
a telephone, school land
lines are available and you
can store important phone
numbers and information in
your planner. Your parents
can contact you at school
via Reception or your Year
Manager. The full Mobile
Phone Agreement is on the
school website and signing
this is requirement for entry
to the school.
