Ardnamurchan 2–18 Campus has a sensible and affordable dress code. As agreed with the Parent Council, we believe that a school uniform promotes a strong sense of identity and belonging. It also enhances security by allowing pupils to be easily recognised both on-site and during excursions and, importantly, provides a standard form of dress which is affordable for families.

Uniform helps to reduce pressure on young people to follow trends. We also ensure that our uniform is comfortable, practical and suitable for daily wear, including travel on school transport.

We recognise that some families may face challenges in meeting the cost of school uniform. As such, we place a strong emphasis on affordability and ease of laundering. Financial support is available through The Highland Council. In addition, the Parent Council operates an upcycling scheme, where pre-loved secondary hooded sweatshirts can be obtained at no cost.

Clothing considered unsuitable for school includes tracksuits (outwith PE), items displaying football colours/political branding or emblems, military-style clothing and denim. Clothing should also not contain any slogans. 

• Uniform can be ordered online from School Wear Made Easy.
  Children are expected to have a pair of indoor shoes for wearing in school and for use in PE lessons.
• Please ensure that all items of clothing are clearly labelled, particularly items such as gym shoes and sweatshirts.
• Information on free school meals and assistance with clothing grants can be obtained from the Highland Council.
