A comfortable kit would help 78% of girls enjoy PE more so let's Fit The Kit

21-08-2026

64% of girls leave sport at 16 and 1/3 leave due to their PE kit.

We're proud to support Fix The Kit, a nationwide campaign that gives secondary schools the evidence, tools, and support to update their PE kit policies, with 6 quick fixes. To keep more pupils, especially teenage girls, active.

Inclusive Sportswear's 6 quick fixes to PE kit:

  1. Ask pupils how they feel in their kit.
  2. Allow choice of dark shorts, leggings, tracksuits.
  3. Have a dark, round-necked, breathable PE top.
  4. Sign-post sports bra guidance on PE kit list.
  5. Support extra dark layers in cold weather.
  6. 'PE Kit Days' & flexible changing arrangements.

‍WHY NOW? New government guidance on PE kit & branded-item limits means it’s the perfect time to update PE kit policies ahead of mandatory changes. According to Inclusive Sportswear a comfortable PE kit would help 78% of girls enjoy PE more.

So let's Fix The Kit and they'll stay to play!!
