Swimming

Children in Key Stage 2 at Mount Pleasant take part in swimming lessons once a week at a local swimming pool, taught by qualified instructors.  Swimming is an important part of the KS2 PE curriculum and a key life skill for all children. By the end of KS2, children work towards swimming at least 25 metres, using different strokes and learning how to keep themselves safe in the water. Being able to swim builds confidence, supports physical health and, most importantly, helps keep children safe when they are in or around water.
