Sports Action Plan 23-24

Swimming

All of our Year 4 children attend swimming lessons at The Arcadia every Friday with school. Learning about water safety and knowing how to keep safe in water is a life skill, and as such is recognised and measured in the same ways as other key subjects.

The aims of the swimming lessons are:

to ensure all Crowcroft Park Children (Year 4 and above) can swim competently, confidently and proficiently over a distance of at least 25 metres.
Use a range of strokes effectively
Perform safe self-rescue in different water-based situations

21% of our Year 6 Cohort can use a range of strokes effectively.

45% of our Year 6 Cohort can perform safe self-rescue in different water based situations.
