Page "School uniform" Paragraph 160

The Welsh Assembly Government issued detailed guidance to governing bodies on uniform and appearance policies that begins by making explicit, " There is no education legislation specifically covering the wearing of school uniform or other aspects of appearance such as hair color and style, and the wearing of jewellery and makeup.

However, as part of its responsibility for the conduct of the school, a governing body can specify a uniform which pupils are required to wear and other rules relating to appearance.
