These expectations are set by Liverpool City Council and are inline with their policy for educational swimming.

Liverpool City Council policy does not permit the wearing of any jewellery for any child when they undertake educational swimming lessons. Under the policy, children who typically wear jewellery as an expression of religious observance have one of three choices to make when swimming with school:

  1. Remove jewellery for the duration of the swimming lesson
  2. Cover the item with appropriate clothing eg. T-Shirt to cover a cross and chain
  3. Not attend the swimming lesson

Jewellery

Children are permitted to wear stud earrings and a watch only.  Jewellery, as an expression of a religious observance, may only be worn, following a written request to and permission from the Headteacher.
