Uniform, Equipment and Prohibited Items
What is our vision for Uniform at HASU?
HASU pupils wear their uniform with pride. It is a sign to other members of the community of the standards to which our pupils hold themselves to and exemplifies the culture of ‘highest expectations’ that we have.
All pupils are expected to be of smart and sensible appearance and must adhere to the school Uniform and Equipment Policy at all times. We have a list of equipment that is required that has been selected to ensure the maximum possible levels of achievement and no disruption to learning.
