We are currently reviewing the ISB school uniforms. The purpose of the review is to determine if we can improve the fabrics used, the style and fit of each item and to bring consistency of uniform policy across all school divisions. We are running a short survey and we will also be conducting focus groups, for those that are interested in providing more feedback. Your input is incredibly valuable in this process and we ask that you please take a few moments to complete this quick survey.
