This ensures that students arrive at school ready to learn. This week, we have worked with students and families to support students with their preparedness to learn and contacted home where issues around uniform and equipment have arisen. From Monday 11th September, students without the correct uniform, including shoes, the wearing of false eyelashes, nails, jewellery and nose studs, will be given a 24-hour window to rectify the issue. If this does not happen, a student will then attend a lunchtime detention until this issue has been resolved. Please ensure you have the MCAS app so you can be contacted with all school information, including uniform reminders. Thank you for your continued support. We look forward to working in partnership with you throughout the year. Yours sincerely, S Crawshaw Headteacher ![](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/images/Letterheads/LetterFooterWebDec23.png) [Year 7](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news/tag/year-7) [Year 8](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news/tag/year-8) [Year 9](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news/tag/year-9) [Year 10](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news/tag/year-10) [Year 11](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news/tag/year-11) [Latest News](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news/tag/latest-news) [ Message from CEO: RAAC Update](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news/2023-09-04-message-from-ceo-raac-update-1) [Letter for Year 11 : Mastery and Rewards ](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news/2023-09-08-letter-for-year-11-mastery-and-rewards-1) ### News & Gallery - [Gallery](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/photo-galleries) - [News](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news/tag/latest-news) - [Newsletters](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news-gallery/newsletters) - [Parent Bulletins](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news-gallery/parent-bulletins) ![The English Martyrs Catholic School and Sixth Form College](https://files.schudio.com/the-english-martyrs-catholic-school-and-sixth-form-3/images/logo/Bishop_Hogarth_and_Hexham_Logo_new_(1).png) ### The English Martyrs Catholic School and Sixth Form College Catcote Road Hartlepool TS25 4HA 01429 273790 ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/EnglishMartyrsSchool/) - [X](https://twitter.com/ems_hartlepool) - [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/@TheEnglishMartyrsSchool) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/ems_hartlepool/) ### Translation ### Office 365 [Sign in to Office 365](https://outlook.office.com/) © Copyright 2025–2026 The English Martyrs Catholic School and Sixth Form College School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
