Dress Code

At UTC Swindon we mirror the working world in every way possible and this includes what you wear. We require our students to be ”boardroom ready” and as a result, all students and staff wear business attire. Our students tell us this change from their previous school helps them to embrace the demands of a working environment and allows them to display their growing maturity.

All members of the UTC Team, staff and students, are expected to dress in business attire; wearing either a shirt and tie with a suit or with formal trousers and tailored jacket; or formal trousers, a skirt or dress of reasonable length with a smart top/blouse and tailored jacket or smart plain sweatshirt. Tights must be work with dresses and skirts.  Suits should be charcoal grey, black or navy.  All black or brown shoes (including trainers) are required.

Staff and students are always expected to wear their lanyards and ID Badges at all times to identify them and allow access around the building.

Students who are dressed inappropriately will be expected to change or will be sent home to change and contact made with parents / carers.
