National Curriculum - Key Stage 2 Swimming
All Children should:
"By the time they leave Junior School be able to achieve 25m and know about basic water safety in and around water."
Swimming is an inportant part of the national Curriculum for Physical Education, partically up to the age of 11 years.
Most schools will take the children to the local pool for the benefit of children who are not involved in a swimming club.
Swimming and water safety/survival are compulsory parts of PE curriculum between Key Stages One and Two.
This is what you should expect your child to learn at school during each Key Stage:
Key Stage One (5-7 years old)
Pupils should be taught to:
Key Stage Two (7-11 years old)
- move in water – e.g. jump, walk hop and spin using swimming aids and supports.
- float and move without swimming aids.
- propel themselves in water using different aids, arm and leg actions, and basic strokes.
Pupils should be taught to:
Key Stage Three (11-14 years old)
- pace themselves in floating and swimming challenges related to speed, distance and person survival.
- swim unaided for a sustained period over at least 25 metres.
- use recognised arm and leg actions, lying on their front and back.
- use a range of recognised strokes and personal survival skills.
If a school teaches swimming at this stage, pupils should be taught to:
Key Stage Four (15-16 years old)
- set and meet personal and group targets in swimming events.
- use a range of recognised strokes, techniques and personal survival skills with technical proficiency.
If a school teaches swimming at this stage, pupils should be taught to:
- meet challenges in specific swimming events and water-based activities.
- use advanced techniques and skills with precision, power, speed or stamina with technical proficiency.
