Swimming Lessons

Academic year 2022-2023

Swimming is an important skill and can encourage a healthy and active lifestyle. In accordance with the National Curriculum, schools must provide swimming instruction either in Key Stage 1 or Key Stage 2.

The programme of study for PE sets out the expectation that pupils should be taught to:

• swim competently, confidently and proficiently over a distance of at least 25 metres
• use a range of strokes effectively [for example, front crawl, backstroke and breaststroke]
• perform safe self-rescue in different water-based situations.

At Mulgrave, Swimming is an exciting part of our curriculum that the pupils really enjoy.

Below is the data outlining our pupil's progress in their lessons.
