Class sizes have a maximum of 6 pupils to 1 teacher, allowing for individualisation of the lessons to the needs of the child. Children learn more and progress faster. Swimming lessons are  30 minutes in duration with small class sizes including water-based teachers.

 

Silver Sharks Swim School Teachers hold the minimum of a Level 2 Certificate for teaching swimming, and an enhanced CRB check. The teaching of Silver Sharks Swim School is continually monitored and teachers are expected to attend regular Continuous Professional Development training. All lessons held are staffed by lifeguards that hold a National Pool Lifeguard Qualification.

Awards

We use the Amateur Swimming Association's National Plan for Teaching Swimming (NPTS) as part of our teaching programme.
The NPTS is a comprehensive and progressive teaching programme based upon sound technical and educational principles. The awards range from simply entering the pool unaided and moving freely around the pool to the more advanced pre competition level where the emphasis will be more on technique and stamina. Further details on the scheme are available upon request.

The Amateur Swimming Association (ASA) is the National Governing Body for Swimming throughout the United Kingdom.
