The Emirates Schools Establishment (ESE) is introducing a new unified public school uniform for kindergarten to grade 12 students.

The new uniform will be distributed to students and parents from Aug.15, 2022 as part of the ESE’s preparations for the new academic year 2022-2023.

The new uniform in white and dark blue is suitable for all age groups across all cycles to meet their dynamic nature and provides an educational environment based on equality and positive interaction between students.

It also reflects ESE’s identity and provides students with several options to choose from, following essential values that reflect the educational environment, which ESE is keen to provide for its students.

The new unified uniform provides high-quality material to all students and will be available and accessible to all students at 38 LuLu Hypermarkets across the country.

As far as school uniform regulations and appearance are concerned, all students are expected to wear appropriate school uniform as approved in the dedicated guide.

The school uniforms must look neat and tidy. They must wear  black formal shoes and the socks should be white in colour; track shoes are not acceptable for both boys and girls; heels are not acceptable; track showscan be worn during sports days or certain event / activities outside the classes.

Hair length, style and colours should comply with normal acceptable social norms. Nail polish and obvious make-up are not to be worn at school. Regular uniform checks will be conducted.

If any student is persistently not wearing the correct uniform, parents will be contacted to take the necessary measures.

A dedicated guide on ESE’s website www.ese.gov.ae provides detailed information about the new uniforms for each cycle, including pricing and points of sales.
