Uniform

There are two main reasons we ask pupils to wear full school uniform. Firstly, and most importantly, it is for overall levels of safety. It is vital, being the largest school in Scotland, that we are able to identify any intruders – having pupils in uniform allows us to do this quickly.

Secondly, school is your place of work and wearing school uniform creates the right climate and mindset required for learning. We know, from experience, that uniform impacts on this and we want to instil a sense of pride, belonging and purpose with everyone being treated as equals.

The tie and blazer, in particular, help you to stand out as being part of the Larbert High School Community – and it is a key part of our uniform. We would encourage all S1 pupils to have a blazer for starting school in August and can support this via SETUP

We have recently introduced a school hoodie and information about how to purchase this will be shared in the new session.

The Year Team will ensure that any barriers to wearing uniform are sorted out and you will be given the option to either borrow uniform from Medical or, where appropriate, will be given the uniform you require from LHS SETUP.

Setup

The SETUP is located within the school and stocks new or nearly-new items to support our commitment to eco-friendly working. Items include uniform, stationery, sanitary products and more. We understand that many of our families are now looking to live more sustainably, and that teenagers grow at a rate where their uniform is barely worn before they grow out of it! We also recognise that buying new uniform and school essentials can be financially burdensome to many families.
