Uniform

The Seaford Secondary College Uniform Policy is an important part of our school safety program.

Wearing the School Uniform

• contributes to students safety by providing clear identification of students in the school community
• supports students to develop a sense of identity and pride with our school
• reduces peer pressure and social stigmas
• reduces distractions
• redirects personal expression to schoolwork rather than personal appearance
• lowers long-term clothing costs
• promotes a standard of dress in the learning environment

Students

All students are expected to be in full school uniform. The described Seaford Secondary College uniform is the only acceptable uniform.

All uniform items are to be purchased through Lowes Colonnades Store. Black school shoes can be purchased independently. If you have any questions in relation to the school uniform, please don’t hesitate to contact the school.

Students out of school uniform will be expected to change into appropriate uniform with the support of their House leaders. A plan will be implemented, in partnership with parents/care providers, to support students to be in full school uniform.

Parents/Care Providers

Parents/carers are asked to:

• support the School Uniform Policy
• check that their child is in uniform each day
• contact the school to clarify any questions in regard to the school uniform
• supply their child with a diary note for any temporary exemptions. The school will provide a loan uniform for the day
• ensure all items are labelled with their child’s name
• refer to the uniform and footwear guidelines before purchasing any items

Inappropriate shoe styles include: backless, ugg-boots, thongs, sandals, slip-ons or high heels.

Enrolment Options

Seaford Secondary College is a school zoned for the enrolment of families living in Port Noarlunga South, any of the Seaford suburbs (Seaford, Seaford Rise, Seaford Heights, Seaford Meadows), Old Noarlunga and Maslin Beach. Parents/Caregivers wishing to enrol students at Seaford Secondary College should contact the school in order to make an enrolment appointment with one of our Student Wellbeing Leaders.

At this interview the leader will meet with families and students to discuss the student’s previous school history, any learning support needed, the student’s skills, abilities and aspirations for the future. We do make contact with previous schools to discuss any behaviour issues and support that might be needed to ensure that students can be successful. Parents/Caregivers are welcome to make inquiry phone calls prior to any enrolment appointment if wishing to discuss an enrolment possibility.
