Hairdressing & Barbering - Greater Brighton Metropolitan College (Northbrook MET Site) Welcome pack and course information - Greater ...
We are delighted that you are joining our Hairdressing and Beauty department
to embark on a new training programme.

We would like to take this opportunity to firstly welcome you, but also highlight
some important information.This pack contains everything you need to prepare
for starting your course.

Uniform
Your uniform consists of your choice of two black tunics to be worn with your own
plain black trousers and smart flat all black fully closed in shoes or trainers (no
canvas, no logos, no coloured soles).
No jeans, leggings or tracksuit bottoms.
You may not wear a cardigan / jumper over or have visible sleeves from under the
uniform.
You will be required to purchase your uniform from Gear-UK.
Students on the Barbering course will wear custom printed t-shirts and will need to
purchase a minimum of two from our uniform supplier Gear-UK.
Tunics are £19.30 each including V.A.T. & t-shirts are £27 including V.A.T. for both

If you turn up for lessons in anything other than the required uniform,
you risk diciplinary action or being sent home.
Please ensure you order your uniform in plenty of time before your course starts.
Full details of how to order your uniform are included.

Uniform returns or exchange

Ensure that you tried your tunic on at our "Welcome to GB Met event" and selected
the right size. If you are not happy with the fit you can contact the supplier directly
and arrange to send back your item and swap it for a different size but you will need
to pay the cost of postage. The t-shirts are custom printed to indicate which course
you are on so are non refundable, please ensure you order the correct size.

                                                                                          3

Hairdressing & Barbering kits

Your bespoke kit has been designed by the college to ensure you have
everything you need to complete all modules of your course, which you
are required to purchase from College Kits Direct from their website
www.collegekitsdirect.com/student-ordering and use log in details User
name: BRIGHTONMET and Password: as shown on relevant kit list or
by post:
College Kits Direct (CKD) Unit 24, Ashville Way Trading Estate,
Whetstone, LE8 6NU. Orders are not accepted by phone.

Please order your kit as early as possible and allow up to 14 working days for
delivery.
Please note that all colleges will be ordering their kits at the same time. This is
a very busy time for suppliers and can sometimes cause delays in receiving
items. It is important that you order your kit and uniform promptly as soon as
you receive your order form. This will ensure that you have the correct
equipment and uniform at the start of your course.

Failure to do so will hinder your progress
Please see each individual course order form for full information on how to
order your kit and uniform.

Labelling your kit
Your kit MUST be clearly labelled with your name where possible. Metal
tools and implements need to be sterilised or sanitised so be aware that any
stickers will come off. The best way to label these items is using nail polish,
dot them with different colours. Products can be stickered with your name
but keep the labels neat, tidy and small as possible. Try to place the label
on the base of the product.

Cleaning your kit
Your kit needs to be kept clean and tidy. You will have access to
sterilisation and sanitation methods here at college. You will need to wipe
over products to keep them free of product residue on a regular basis..
This will make the product last longer. Always ensure you tighten lids after
use on products to avoid leakage in transit.

Guidelines and application forms for all our College funds

based on your personal circumstances.
Our funds are limited and are offered at the discretion of the College.
If you are intending to apply for a Bursary please ensure you leave plenty of
time for your application to be assessed as it can take up to 6 weeks for the
approval process.

barrier to learning.
