School Uniform and Hygiene
At The Namakkal Teachers Vidhyaashram Matric Higher Secondary School, we emphasize discipline, personal grooming, and hygiene as an integral part of a student’s overall development. The school uniform symbolizes unity, equality, and pride. It must be worn with dignity and maintained in a neat and proper manner.
Parents and students are expected to adhere to the following guidelines regarding uniform and hygiene:
Neat Presentation
Students must report to school in a clean, well-ironed uniform every day. Uniforms should be in good condition and properly fitted to avoid a shabby appearance.
Personal Grooming
- Hair should be neatly trimmed and combed.
- Fancy or trendy hairstyles, hair coloring, highlights, or streaks are strictly not allowed.
- Applying henna (mehendi) on hands, especially during school days, is prohibited.
Footwear Etiquette
Black shoes should be well-maintained and regularly polished. Worn-out footwear must be replaced without delay to maintain decorum.
Jewelry & Accessories
- Students are not permitted to wear fancy jewelry, flashy hair accessories, or decorative clips.
- Nail polish, tattoos, body piercings for fashion, and multiple ear piercings are strictly forbidden inside the campus.
Uniform Discipline
Alterations to the prescribed design are strictly prohibited. Low-waist pants or skirts, skin-tight uniforms, or modified dress styles will not be tolerated.
Lunch Essentials
- Every student must carry a handkerchief, a small napkin, and a spoon to maintain hygiene during lunch hours.
- These personal items help promote cleanliness and responsible self-care.
It is mandatory for all students to wear the school-issued identity card at all times while on campus. This is part of the school’s safety protocol and must be worn around the neck with the prescribed lanyard.
Maintaining proper hygiene and uniform discipline fosters self-respect, cleanliness, and responsibility. These practices also prepare our students to uphold standards of decorum in public life and future professional environments.
