Swimming Information

Gorefield Primary Academy, we work hard to ensure that our swimming model produces the best experiences and progress for all pupils. We ensure that all children, from Reception to year 6 swim  at least 3x a week in the second half of the summer term. (Minimum six weeks – 3 days a week) The lessons last for 40 minutes a day. The school uses the onsite swimming pool. The pool is also used for KS2 and KS1 after school swimming clubs where up to 20 children at a time use the swimming pool for an hour.  With the changes in the Swimming curriculum we will be training all staff through a British Swimming course and will use a qualified coach to shadow each member of staff for one hour a week during the swimming season. 

 

Of the children in Year 6 in 2022 - 72% could swim 25m.    (10 children - 10/15)
