UNIFORM REQUIREMENTS

WHAT PARENTS SHOULD KNOW

We ask parents to support their child in following our uniform expectations, helping us to maintain our standards of excellence throughout the learning community. Please keep these tips in mind while preparing your child’s uniform or helping them to get dressed and ready for the day.
  • Uniform requirements are listed by year groups in the BISC Uniform Policy. Please follow your child's year group requirements carefully.
  • "Optional" items provide more variety and personal choice to students, but aren't required.
  • Students may choose whichever lunch box and backpack they prefer; they don't have to be in school colors or monogrammed with our logo.
  • When ordering from Lands' End, it can take up to three weeks to receive your order from the time it was placed.
