Uniform
The Duston School uniform is one of the outward signs by which the local community recognises and makes judgments about the students. It is important for students and the school that the way students present themselves is positive and acceptable and creates the impression of a disciplined and well ordered establishment. It is expected that all students will come to The Duston School every day in neat, clean uniform, giving a message that our students take pride in belonging to the school. The support of parents in ensuring this is expected. Students should recognise that conflict over the dress code is inappropriate.
The items listed form the regulation Duston School uniform and must be worn on a daily basis. Items marked with an asterix must be purchased from the school uniform stockist.

Instructions on how to attach a house badge to a blazer using an iron:
- Step 1: Set your hand iron at the ‘cotton’ temperature setting. DO NOT USE STEAM DURING APPLICATION!
- Step 2: Place your applique or embroidered patch on the lapel of the blazer as shown in the photograph and place a pressing cloth (such as a tea towel, sheet or cotton pillowcase) over the top. THIS IS ESSENTIAL OR THE BLAZER COULD BURN
- Step 3: Press the iron straight down for 35-45 seconds with as much constant pressure as possible. DO NOT GO BACK AND FORTH OVER THE BADGE.
- Step 4: Turn the lapel over and repeat steps 2 & 3.
- Step 5: Allow the iron-on badge to cool down.
