Our Uniform

The fabrics are made from 100% recycled plastic bottles, which have dramatically reduced the amount of plastic ending up in landfills. In fact, 40 million 2L plastic bottles will have been saved by the end of 2020! All garments are produced ethically and are made with high-quality, comfortable fabrics.

School uniform is available at Unimode and can be ordered online at www.unimode.hu/bisb. Orders will be home delivered. 

For Secondary students, school houses will be assigned at the beginning of the school term so please wait until then before purchasing the house t-shirt. The first new house tie will also be provided free of charge to students by their class teachers.

In the case of incorrect orders, the return slip should be completed indicating the new size required. Returning items should be dropped off at the school security cabin and the amended order will be sent back to school or home delivered if required.

Please visit the Unimode FAQ page for more information.
