Following a consultation with students, parents and Governors, from September 2026 we are moving to a fully all-purpose uniform – a uniform that is comfortable, versatile, and supports active engagement in all areas of school life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are offering a transitional period whilst we phase in the new uniform to help minimize the costs for parents. For this reason, our year 8 – 11 students have the option to continue wearing the original polo shirt. They may also continue to wear black skirts or trousers on days where they do not have PE, GOFAL or Expressive Arts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To help you with the task of purchasing the correct uniform and equipment, please find below a detailed guide to what is, and what is not, expected at Ysgol Aberconwy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A list of uniform stockists can be found at the bottom of this page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you need clarification on any uniform issues, please do not hesitate to contact the school\u2019s pastoral team in the first instance.<\/p>\n\n\n
