dress standard
As a condition of attending the prison, we would ask that students are advised that they are entering a prison, and that not all community standards of dress can apply.
Of late we have experienced a number of students inappropriately dressed, mainly that dresses have been inappropriately short and revealing. This year students will not be permitted access into the prison if singlets, revealing tops of any kind or brief top garments are worn, and if shorts or skirts that are 8cm above knee height are worn.
You would appreciate that it is in the best interest of students, staff and prisoners that a more stringent dress standard is applied. This standard will be enforced, and any person attending the prison wearing clothing that does not meet our expected standard will be denied entry into the prison. Community standards of dress are a very difficult issue to articulate and manage, and we appreciate this may be a contentious issue.
