Jewellery

The Department of Education guidelines state that jewellery or other items that could, with reasonable foreseeability, cause injury to the student wearing them or to others must not be worn at school. These guidelines allow schools to instruct students to remove jewellery if it is deemed dangerous.

At Bankstown West Public School, acceptable jewellery is limited to modest items, such as small studs or sleepers for pierced ears. Excessive or large jewellery, including costume jewellery, poses a health and safety hazard and is not permitted. Items considered unsafe and therefore unacceptable include large earrings, bracelets, bangles, rings and necklaces.

Jewellery of religious or cultural significance is permitted; however, consideration should be given to its monetary and emotional value. The school cannot be held responsible for loss or damage. Where possible, items should be kept out of sight.

Additionally, for a child to wear such items, parents must submit a written request for approval to the school office. Medical alert jewellery is always permissible.
