At Castle View Academy, students are encouraged to take pride in wearing their school uniform as it represents their commitment to the school’s values and community. The uniform is a symbol of unity and belonging, helping students feel part of something bigger than themselves. Taking pride in their appearance reflects respect for themselves, their peers, and the learning environment. It also sets a positive tone for behaviour and attitude, both in and out of the classroom. By wearing the uniform smartly and consistently, students show that they are ready to learn, contribute, and represent the academy with confidence and integrity.
