Uniform Policy

We are very proud of our uniform which was updated in collaboration with students, parents and staff. You may notice different jumpers – Years 7, 8 and 9 wear blue and Years 10 and 11 wear black. Some students choose to wear a blazer, this is optional and can be worn in all years.

The Roseland Academy expects every student to maintain high standards of appearance at all times, both when in school or representing the school in public.
