Swimming is taught throughout the year in every year group at BWJS. The planning which we follow is based on ability and confidence rather than age.
Stage 1 | Stage 2 | Stage 3 | Stage 4 | Stage 5 |
Non-Swimmer & Beginner | Improving | Improving | Advanced | Advanced |
The children at BWJS are very lucky to be able to have access to a swimming pool every week (some year groups swim every other week) and to be taught high quality swimming lessons each week too. The National Curriculum states that pupils should be taught to:
The swimming lessons are planned from the ASA Schemes of Work and are based on a 10 week unit of work with continuous assessment carried out throughout the unit of work. These assessment documents are then sent up to the next year group to ensure skills development in swimming across Key Stage 2. As the children become more confident in the water, their swimming skills develop and there is scope for Personal Survival lessons to be taught within the summer term. In addition, the children take part in a year group swimming gala in the summer term to showcase their swimming skills. In keeping with the new National Curriculum, this also allows the children to take part in the competitive nature of swimming.
We offer a wide range of before and after school sports clubs for our children to join and some of our clubs have links with community clubs in the area who help us with coaching expertise. Some of our clubs run throughout the year whilst others offer a termly course.
Matches in football, netball, cross country, cricket and rounders are played against other schools in the area and we also travel across the cnty when we enter county tournaments. We host the district athletics track events every year and attend the district netball and football rallies at local pyramid schools.
Our school swimming squads train at two early morning sessions every week. Children from years 3, 4, 5 and 6 are invited to attend and have the chance of competing in galas against other schools. We compete in the Winchester schools gala and the English Primary Schools gala every year. Our teams have won the Hampshire rounds of this competition on many occasions and have then competed against schools from central southern England.
