School Uniform…
At Pilton Community College, we have high expectations of our pupils in all aspects of life. A smart outward appearance sets the tone for a focussed and purposeful approach to school and to learning. Pilton students are our ambassadors in the community and should be mindful of the need to present themselves smartly at all times, and to positively reflect the school ethos.
All pupils should wear:
- Plain black trousers or skirt (knee length)
- School polo shirt
- School sweatshirt Blue – Years 7, 8, 9. Black – Years 10, 11

- Plain black shoes with flat heels
- Trainers, jeans, cords or similar casual fashion clothes should not be worn.
- Trousers should be plain with no excessive design features, eg flares, studs.
- Skirts should be traditional in style, knee length and not tight.
- The only acceptable sweatshirt or polo shirt is the school one, for sale in the Main Office.
- Outside coats should only be worn as an addition to the school sweatshirt (not instead) and should not be worn inside the school building.
- No jewellery should be worn, with the exception of one pair of small studs or sleepers, for pupils with pierced ears, and a watch. No facial piercing is allowed; this includes tongue piercing.
- Hoodies are not permitted on the school site and will be confiscated if necessary.
- Wearing make-up is strongly discouraged. If make-up is worn it should be so discrete as to not be noticeable.
- Nail varnish is not to be worn.
- Socks must be plain black, white or grey.
- Plain white round-necked t-shirts may be worn under polo-shirts. However, no coloured, patterned or motifed t-shirts may be visible.
- Hair colour should fall within the natural range and should not be extreme. No patterns should be cut into hair.
