KS3 Swimming Schemes of Work

Swimming SOW for years 7, 8 & 9. A total of 19 lessons although, depending on ability and the practice-time needed by pupils, some lessons may be extended across 2 hours (including changing time). An excellent resource, with thorough planning, to be used as ‘tick box’ evidence for department SOW. These SOW include prior and horizon knowledge for each year group, to inform the teacher of previous and expected learning. Learning objectives and TIF challenge objectives, that can be used to stretch HA pupils, have been written for each lesson. Ideas of activities to support learning have also been included but, they do not specifically state the exact activities that should take place during a lesson, as these can be planned and designed by the leading teacher. Each lesson also has the following planned: powerful knowledge, robust vocabulary, key terms, key questions and potential misconceptions. Overall, a good resource to ensure learning and progression is achieved, among all levels of ability, across a term of swimming.
