The Student Dress Code
Following the Student Dress Code is an important part of your daughter’s education and lifelong learning. It provides a sense of belonging and encourages pride both in being a member of Greenbank High School and in her appearance.

All students must follow this dress code.

Dark green ‘A’ line or pleated skirt or pinafore dress of a modest length.
