Dress Code

Fairfield College Dress Code

Fairfield College is a mufti school. While we do not have a uniform, we expect students to dress in a way that supports a positive learning environment and reflects respect for themselves and others.

General Expectations
Clothing must be clean, tidy, and appropriate for learning.
Students should present themselves in a manner that is respectful and suitable for a school setting.

Specific Guidelines

• No midriff (belly) showing.
• Low cut tops are not to be worn.
• Shorts and skirts need to be a minimum of mid thigh in length.
• Shoulder straps must be at least 1 cm wide, (two straps).
• No under garments to be shown.
• Fasteners (buttons, zips etc) need to be done up on pants and skirts.
• Hoodies are allowed to be worn, however students are not permitted to wear the hood up.  
• Clothing must not display alcohol, drugs, offensive language, or inappropriate imagery.
• Footwear should be safe and practical for school activities.
• Hats are recommended outside, however, hats are not to be worn inside.
• Headphones are not to be permitted without an exemption.

Decision-Making

The Senior Leadership Team has the final say on what is considered appropriate.
Students who do not meet the dress code may be asked to go home and change before returning to class.
