PE uniform requirements remain unchanged i.e. white polo shirt and black shorts.  It is the policy of the PE department that all pupils change into their PE kit for every PE lesson.  This includes pupils excused from lessons due to ill-health or injury.  As an inclusive PE department, excused pupils are encouraged to plan and evaluate activities or practices, or help to officiate within lessons.  This policy eliminates the possibility of pupils’ school uniform becoming wet or muddy.
