Benefits for Parents

• Overall cheaper uniform to purchase (and fewer items to buy)

• More hygienic, compared to the same PE kit being kept all week in the PE bags

• Easier/quicker to clean and dry

• No possibility of children forgetting or losing sports kit or uniforms.

Better for Pupils

• Clothing designed for movement makes it easier to sit, kneel, stretch, and engage in outdoor or practical activities without discomfort, which can support focus and reduce fidgeting.

• Activewear and flexible fabrics are often more comfortable for pupils of all shapes and sizes.

• Some pupils feel anxious changing in front of others; removing the need to change for PE reduces stress and avoids negative social situations.

Better for School

• Time saved that would have been used for pupils getting changed

• A consistent “sports-ready” uniform helps pupil’s transition quickly between lessons, particularly outdoor learning, forest school, dance, drama, and classroom tasks.

• A single, consistent look for all active events—sports fixtures, outdoor learning days, enrichment activities—strengthens the school’s public presentation.

We do not encourage children to wear jewellery for school. If a child wears earrings these must be removed for PE for health and safety reasons.
