Bentleigh Secondary College Uniform Brochure
This brochure outlines the new uniform guidelines introduced in 2021 for ALL year 7 students. The introduction has a three year phase in with ALL students in the new uniform by the commencement of 2024.
Uniform Guidelines
College uniform is an essential part of the learning culture of a school. The uniform creates a sense of belonging and allows our students to be clearly identified at all times. Bentleigh Secondary College Council has developed a Uniform Policy that is designed to build a positive learning culture, and all members of the College community are expected to ensure that uniform is worn correctly at all times.
Uniform Expectations
Students are required to wear the College uniform. We ask for, and confidently expect, parental co-operation in the enforcement of correct uniform and maintaining proper standards in the general appearance and grooming of students. College uniform is compulsory for all students and must be worn at school, while travelling to and from school, and on any school excursion except where the teacher in charge has obtained the approval of the Assistant Principal for other clothes to be worn and this is noted on the consent form. All uniform items should be clearly named for identification. Any application for an exemption to the School Uniform Policy needs to be directed to the College Principal.

Ongoing issues will require a parent conference. Note: Students are not permitted to do PE unless in proper uniform. Students representing the College in sports teams should be properly attired in transit – either in PE or College uniform.
