Dress Code

Students at ICHS dress smartly in ‘Business Attire’. Our Sixth Formers set a positive example for the younger students in the school and by dressing smartly they demonstrate the positive attitudes, hard work and professional attitude that they have towards their studies.

  • Students wear their ID badge and lanyard visible around their neck at all times
  • Smart, professional dress at ICHS is:
    • A suit
    • A plain shirt with a collar
    • A tie
    • A pair of plain smart shoes
    • A V neck jumper is also allowed on colder days. 
  • Facial hair (beards, moustaches, stubble) must be neatly groomed
  • When students are travelling to and from school, it is expected that their appearance will be a credit to the school and to their homes.   No particular colour or length of outer clothing is stipulated; the only requirement is that the boys must look respectable. No “hoodies” or denim jackets are permitted. Coats should not be worn inside the building.
  • The following items are not permitted:
    • Jewellery (a single small stud ear-ring may be worn in either ear)
    • Hairstyles liable to draw attention
