This was the Covid game changer for me. Primary rarely has changing rooms so the girls changed in the toilets & the boys in class. Loads of nonsense & time wasted. Not to mention other pupils unable to access toilets as crowded. Coming to school in kit means longer for the PE lesson.

Can wearing PE kit all day boost participation, especially among girls? Research suggests it might — so how common is the policy? 🟢 Primary: 77% of teachers say yes, students can wear PE kit all day 🟢 Secondary: just 17% say the same

A Tapper pointed out we missed cricket in our girls' sport data - so we looked into it 🏏 In secondary, 55% have a team for boys but just 33% for girls. Having a team makes a difference: 25% of teachers in secondary schools WITH a girls' team see them playing at lunch - compared to 1% without one.

Infographic from TeacherTapp titled "Are girls getting a fair chance to play cricket at school?" described as "Asked by a Teacher Tapper!" Four findings are highlighted:

In primary, 48% of teachers in schools WITH a girls' team see girls playing cricket at lunchtime, dropping to just 8% without one
In secondary, this drops even further — 25% with a girls' team vs just 1% without
Having a team makes a difference for boys too: 55% of primary teachers in schools with a boys' team see them playing at lunch, vs just 16% without
