At West Rainton Primary School we take school swimming seriously. We introduced the ASA school swimming awards in 2015-16 as a way of tracking and accelerating progress in swimming, leading to 90% of Y6 pupils leaving at the required standard (an increase of 34% since introducing the scheme) in 2019.
Swimming progress was halted in 2020, as from spring term 2 no classes were able to attend the pool due to covid restrictions.
