School uniform at BIC Sant Agustí is required, as per the guidelines below. School uniform encourages a sense of unity and common purpose and provides a sense of belonging.
All items brought into school (including clothing, lunch boxes and water bottles) should be clearly marked with the student’s name.
We are excited to announce that we are launching our brand new school uniform.

Children are not allowed to bring any expensive items or toys to school. Smartwatches and mobile phones are not allowed.
All students (except Sixth Form) must wear BIC uniform and BIC sports uniform, which must be worn on PE days.
