Uniform Expectations

We believe that wearing the Hedingham uniform with pride helps students to feel part of our community. It sets a standard which supports our expectations of work and behaviour. In addition to this, dressing appropriately for the work place puts students in the right frame of mind for learning and prepares them for expectations in their future world of work.
