School Uniform

All students at IAK are expected to wear the correct school uniform during the school day , during events or visits arranged by the school. The school stresses the importance of wearing the uniform tidily and correctly. It is hoped that students will take pride in wearing the uniform and remember that when in uniform they are viewed as ambassadors for the school at large.

Only on days when a class has PE, students should wear the correct PE uniform. Students who are not in the correct school uniform will have parents contacted to deliver the correct school uniform or students will be sent home to change into the correct uniform. In extreme cases where a child continues to disobey the uniform rules they will be sent home and told not to return until they comply. All uniform clothing items are available in the school shop.

• White plain monogramed official school shirt with blue collar
• Plain navy blue or black cardigan, pullover or jacket may be worn on cold days (no stripes or writing)
