All children in the school get the opportunity to swim once a week for at least 12 weeks every academic year. This enables children to develop basic water skills and confidence.

Due to coronavirus, no swimming has been able to take place during the 2019-2020 academic year.

In 2018 - 2019, we had 82% of our Year 6 children who meet the national curriculum requirement to swim competently, confidently and proficiently over a distance of at least 25 metres, use a range of strokes effectively and perform safe self-rescue in different water-based situations.

The remaining 18% (11 children) had "top-up" swimming sessions to support them in developing their water confidence and skills.
