Farlingaye High School Maths and Computing College is a co-educational school located in Woodbridge, Suffolk, England. The school uniform consists of a light blue shirt for boys, a light blue blouse for girls. There is a mandatory jumper for all the pupils. The sixth formers in years twelve and thirteen may wear whatever they please, as long as it conforms to the schools "smart casual" policy. The school sports colours are also blue. The school was named by BT Group as a "site of excellence" for its internet capability. However, Suffolk and School Internet Policy can have a profound negative effect on pupils learning, restrciting access, for example, to BBC News stories and highly political websites. It was rated as 'Outstanding' in its most recent[when?] OFSTED inspection.
