The wearing of sports kit on school days (see separate sports kit list):

On any day when a student has sports i.e., Games, PE or a sports practice, they may wear the appropriate KGS sports kit for the activity in order to avoid carrying too much kit and equipment with them all day.

On any such day, all students wearing sports kit must wear a compulsory top layer of their red KGS mid-layer and their black KGS tracksuit bottoms with a pair of smart, clean trainers suitable for sport / physical activity. You may, therefore, wish to order spares of the mid-layer and tracksuit bottoms.

Other considerations

• Only very discrete make-up and no nail varnish is to be worn.
• Only one pair of discrete simple stud earrings may be worn.
• No other jewellery, except for a watch is permitted.
• Hair accessories must be plain in black, red, grey or white in colour.
• Hairstyles must not be extreme in style or colour (natural colours only).
• No other jewellery, except for a watch or small necklace showing religious affiliation (and must be tucked into shirts and not clearly visible) is permitted.
• All students must be clean shaven (unless a justified exemption is agreed)
