When swimming, children should be able to remove their own stud earrings and be able to put them back in again as earrings cannot be retrieved from the pool and may cause harm to the pupil/s and school facility. If the studs cannot be removed by the pupil, they should not be worn on swimming days. Swimming caps work better if you can put you hair up, a ponytail can help. Wearing a cap is especially important during the cold weather. Children with long hair must have it tied back to take part safely.
