KES uniform quick question, can they wear short sleeve shirt

Post by Yamin151 »

Hi

Just checking as doesn't say in uniform list for KES, is a short sleeved shirt ok? Always found them far easier to keep clean (cuffs are a pain on long sleeve). Am replete with tips for keeping shirts, cuffs etc clean, don't need that, just need to know if short sleeved shirts acceptable.

Thank you!

Yes they are - tend to be worn by the younger years only as, as they get older, they become 'less cool" but certainly there will be lots of Y7s in them as they make the transition up to having to wear a blazer (it can get very hot in long sleeved shirts!)

Never...!!! but very rarely when it is hot (like last week) the Head introduces shirt sleeves order which means that, apart from walking through town, around the school they can take their blazers off!
