A 'scrub hub' based at Hyndland Secondary School in the West End is now producing plastic gowns for hospital workers.
A team of volunteers has set about making poncho-style aprons that can be used by hospital porters and cleaners.
The template requires no stitching or adhesive and can be secured with just tape to protect the wearer.
It was designed by Paul Yuille for the charity Med Supply Drive Scotland.
More than 100 of the sheets are being cut out by helpers who have based themselves in Hyndland.
Plastic for the first batch of PPE was donated by B&Q in Bishopriggs at the weekend.
Glasgow West End Today reported how teachers, college lecturers and friends were making cotton scrubs for health workers.
Co-ordinated
The school's corridors have been turned into a production line turning donated bed linen into PPE.
The garments are part of a national effort being co-ordinated by Med Supply Drive Scotland during the COVID-19 crisis.
This week the team started using the school gym to mark out the plastic sheeting for the gowns.
Volunteer Kay Muir said the effort had really taken off.
"We have had people turn up at the school to volunteer their services.
"We have people cutting the plastic sheets into the right shape.
Donations
"We even have some children who are here because their parents are key workers helping."
A protype shape was created by teacher Bill Cummings at the school.
Volunteers are now calling for donations of four metre-wide clear plastic polythene sheeting.
The school is now accepting offers of both plastic and good quality bed linen for the scrubs.
Kay said: "Everybody is working so hard to produce as much PPE for health teams as we can.
"We hope to have made around 60 scrubs by the end of this week.
"We even have volunteers who are making items for us at home or in their work studio.
"So many people have wanted to get involved - the whole thing has grown arms and legs."
Hyndland Secondary headteacher Louise Edgerton said: "We are exceptionally proud of everyone involved.
"The support from the scrub hub is amazing.
"It has been totally self organised and the spirit shown in both the Hyndland team and community effort is outstanding.
"We know their hard work and commitment will be appreciated by many.
"We are delighted to offer any support to NHS workers at this time as we know their work is essential and really important to all."
Donations should be left at the janitor's office on Lauderdale Gardens between 10am and noon on school days.
