Hyderabad International School strives to promote a sense of self-respect, ownership and identity through its uniform.

Procedures

The purpose of uniform is not just clothing, rather it holds many benefits:

1. Allows students to feel proud and not ashamed to wear cultural clothing of the time of Rasulullah (SAW) in a western society.
2. By wearing the same clothes it allows students to feel they are equal no matter what nationality, colour or background they are from.
3. Allows students to feel that they are proud of being a part of the school.
4. School uniform enhances this feeling of belonging.
5. School uniform prevents the inevitable loss of self-esteem caused to individual students should a family not be able or willing to provide the newest, most expensive or most fashionable clothing and equipment.

Jewellery

On health and safety grounds we do not allow children to wear jewellery in our school. There is no exception to this rule.

Haircuts

The school does not permit children to have ‘extreme’ haircuts that do not conform to the rules of Islam or could serve as a distraction to other children. Hair should be cut in one length only.

The Role of Teachers

We ask teachers to support the school uniform policy by ensuring students are all in uniform.

The Role of Parents

We ask all parents who send their children to our school to support the school uniform policy. It is the responsibility of parents to ensure that their child has the correct uniform and that it is clean and in good repair.
