Swimming and water safety

 
Here is what the National Curriculum says about swimming and water safety:

All schools must provide swimming instruction either in key stage 1 or key stage 2.

In particular, 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

Schools can choose to use the Primary PE and Sport Premium to provide additional provision for swimming but this must be for activity
over and above the national curriculum requirements. Have you used it in this way?
