The guide features illustrations of all approved uniform designs, details on item prices and information on authorised locations where uniforms can be purchased.
With just one month remaining before students return to classrooms, parents across the UAE have another essential item to complete on their back-to-school checklist.
The Ministry of Education has released its official School Uniform Guide for the 2026–2027 academic year, outlining approved uniforms for government school students from kindergarten through Grade 12, along with pricing details and authorised sales outlets across the country.
The guide is intended to help families prepare ahead of the first day of school on August 31, ensuring students arrive in the correct uniform for their grade level and educational stage.
It includes illustrations of all approved designs, pricing details for each item and information on authorised locations where uniforms can be purchased.
According to the ministry, the uniforms have been designed to reflect the UAE’s national and educational values while offering practicality for students of different age groups and supporting everyday school activities. The guide also serves as a single reference point for parents and schools, helping prevent confusion when purchasing uniforms ahead of the new term.
Government school uniforms will be available at approved LuLu Hypermarket outlets across the UAE, as well as designated locations serving more remote communities, giving families several options to complete their back-to-school preparations before classes resume.
The release of the guide comes as schools and families enter the final stage of preparations for the new academic year, with thousands of students expected to return to classrooms at the end of August. The 2026–2027 academic calendar includes a winter break from December 14 to January 1, a spring break from April 5 to April 9, and the end of the academic year on July 2, 2027.
