School Uniform
Our uniform has been agreed in consultation with parents, pupils and staff. Wearing our uniform helps to promote equity between pupils. Our uniform has been designed to be as inexpensive and practical as possible. School ties can be purchased via ParentPay and cost £8.00. Please contact our school office if you are unsure how to access ParentPay. There are no requirements for any particular stockists for other items of uniform. Smart trousers / skirts and school shirts can be purchased from many shops on the high street or in supermarkets. Pupils should wear plain items and not items with slogans / logos etc. Coats, jackets and hooded tops (including Hillhead High P.E. hoodies) should be removed in class and pupils.
** N.B. at present there is increased ventilation in classrooms due to Covid and so classrooms may be colder, therefore for now pupils can keep on hoodies, jackets if they wish. However, all pupils should have on uniform under any jumpers or hoodies.

School Equipment

This saves the expense of having to purchase these items and means that all children have the same calculator to use throughout school.
