National Plan for Teaching Swimming

We have adopted this comprehensive, progressive scheme, developed by the Amateur Swimming Association, which is designed to be incorporated into all learn to swim schemes throughout the UK. The plan concentrates largely on developing water confidence and producing technically accurate swimmers with a solid foundation to move on to participation across the range of swimming disciplines. All lessons include a registration period.

Swimming Instructors

All of our swimming instructors are qualified to Amateur Swimming Association standard and hold a current National Pool Lifeguard Qualification or rescue test.
