Home Economics Department

Our department at Hillhead High School is on the second floor, next to the Maths Department and above the school office. Come to the department following the signs and please ensure that you know how to leave in an emergency. You will be told this on your first visit.

All S1 pupils take Home Economics for one period for the whole year. Half of this time is spent on Food and the other half on Fabric.

In S2, every pupil takes a double period for the full year, this is split between Food and Fabric.

Special points
Each time you come to Home Economics, bring a pencil.
On cookery days, bring a suitable container. (You will be told this during the previous lesson.)

Always dress sensibly - school uniform is ideal. We do not permit extremes of fashion, loose clothing or jewellery. Football colours are not acceptable in any form. Hooded tops and fleeces have to be removed in the kitchens and fabric room. When cooking, jumpers, sweaters and cardigans have to be removed.

All foodstuffs and fabrics for practical work are provided free of charge.
We cater for special diets and allergies. Pupils need not take foods which affect religious observances.
