Abstract
It is possible for swimming and water safety to be skilfully connected to any of the eight key learning curriculum areas (discipline subjects) by primary school teachers, and can be argued that teachers will have increased opportunity and autonomy to do this with the development of a National Curriculum Framework. While this proposal seems simple on the surface, there are underlying complexities that may act as possible barriers.
