Arnold Hill Academy's statement clarifying PE kit policy change over social media speculation

A school has clarified a change to its PE kit policy after speculation on social media. Arnold Hill Academy, in Gedling Road, Arnold, will now ask students to change into their kit at the start of the lesson from their school uniform.

Before this change, students were asked to come to school in their PE kit for social distancing reasons - so students didn't change close to each other and, potentially, spread the virus. Now, students will revert back to using the changing rooms and changing into their kit before the lesson.

Matthew Robinson, the principal at Arnold Hill Academy, confirmed the changes were simply reverting back to how the school operated before the pandemic. He said many schools and academies implemented the same system.
