DS 9 has had swimming lessons since he was 3, has his personal life saving badge and is more than competent in the water.
School have started their swimming lessons and after an assessment of his ability last week he's been put in a group where they have to wear arm bands every week.
I spoke to the teacher as he's never had to wear arm bands and quite frankly I think they'll restrict his arm movement and affect his technique.
Apparently he's in the group because there were 6 kids faster than him and they only have 6 kids per ability group.
I think it's ridiculous to put a child who can swim in arm bands when they don't need them but the teachers not budging on it
