work experience dress code

what should i wear to work in a primary school as someone in year 10? i dont really own anything smart

the website says to wear smart/casual
I did my work experience in a primary school last year and these were the guidelines they gave me

no jeans

no spaghetti straps

no crop tops

no shorts

can wear leggings

no open toe/open back shoes

It varies between each place but the general theme was just not showing too much skin. The best thing would be to call them or arrange to meet your supervisor one day and discuss the details - clothing, lunch breaks, behaviour, start and end times etc.
