Learn to SwimStages
Pre-School (Beginners)
From aged 3 onwards, we take our baby swimmers through the Duckling awards from Swim England which incorporates lots of fun into learning and prepares our kids for progression onto the Learn to Swim Programme.
At this stage we have small class sizes of four swimmers to one teacher, with lifeguard and pool helper support where required. All arms discs and floatation devices are included and regular rewards are given to motivate our swimmers.
Learn to Swim - Stages 1 to 3 (Intermediate)
Once all the Duckling awards are mastered we build on that new found water confidence to include further water skills and safety elements to really develop strong confident swimmers. Class sizes increase to six.
Stages 3 to 7 (Swim Squad)
By these stages our swimmers confidence is building along with their water skills and so, class sizes increase to a maximum of eight and distance badges begin to be introduced in our 20 metre teaching pool.
We provide regular updates on your child’s progress via email reports. After each lesson your teacher completes a rating for the disciplines completed in that session. We don’t like any distractions on the poolside so this is completed afterwards, but you can request an update at anytime. Certificates are awarded quarterly based on their latest/highest attainment.
