Uniform Guidelines

Smart & Consistent

All students must wear the full AICS uniform every school day. The uniform must be clean, well-fitted, and in good condition at all times.

AICS operates a summer and winter uniform. Transition dates are communicated at the start of each term. Students must wear the correct seasonal uniform on the designated dates.

The official AICS uniform is available exclusively from our designated uniform supplier. Generic alternatives are not permitted. See the ‘Where to Buy’ section for details.

Non-Uniform Days

Occasional non-uniform days may be announced throughout the year. On these days, students are still expected to dress modestly and appropriately in line with the school’s values and UAE cultural norms.
