End of KS2 Swimming.
Year 3 pupils are taken to the AT7 Centre for swimming lessons during these sessions pupils will develop water confidence and start to learn to swim. Please don’t worry if your child is nervous as many of our pupils have never been in a swimming pool before or can swim. Over the year they will make huge improvements some going from complete non swimmers to reaching the 25m swim standard! For many it becomes their favourite lesson in Year 3.
Becoming water confident and able to swim is very important which is why the school subsidises the cost, not from the PE Grant but from the main school budget! However, regular swimming and private lessons especially at a younger age really help pupils learn to swim. The AT7 centre has a swimming pool it is definitely worth taking your children or getting them private lessons.
