Active Swimming Academy We offer a wide comprehensive range of swimming courses for all ages and abilities

We continuously strive to provide a better level of service for our customers:

• Customers can now spread the cost of swimming lessons by converting to direct debit payment. This means parents no longer have to pay for lessons in one lump sum and don’t have to worry about queuing to re-enrol their child at the end of each course.

• CoMiNG SooN Parents will be able to review their child’s swimming progress online via a secure personal login.

The National Plan for Teaching SwimmingOur lessons follow the National Plan for Teaching Swimming (NPTS) devised by the Amateur Swimming Association (ASA) who support the delivery of swimming lessons across the UK ensuring all teachers/coaches are fully ASA qualified and receive Continual Professional Development.

The plan takes the non-swimmer through to a competent swimmer where skills are acquired through an environment where emphasis is placed on fun.

Babies and ToddlersTeach your baby/toddler a core life skill in a fun based environment. Our approach to teaching will help enable your child to feel at ease in the water.

Babies normally come to the pool from 3 months old after their initial immunisations.

Pre-SchoolOur Duckling Awards are designed to help pre-school children enjoy learning to swim with help from parents or guardians.

Your child can work towards five grades of colourful awards, each with its own certificate and badge.

Grade 1-3 Duckling Awards: Buoyancy aids, such as armbands can be used for the first three grades as the child learns to float and get used to the water.

Grade 4 Duckling Awards: The fourth grade has young swimmers jumping into the water, submerging, floating and swimming five metres without aids.

4yrs+ and attending schoolChildren within this age range are looking to work through the National Plan for Teaching Swimming.

Below are the focus areas of skills that are developed through the training programme:

• Safe entry into the water• Safe exits from water• Buoyancy and Balance• Rotation and Orientation• Streamlining• Aquatic breathing

In order to progress your child will need to meet pre-set criteria outcomes for each stage; there are 7 core stages in total:

Stage 1: Developing basic safety awareness, basic movement skills and water confidence skills. Swimmers may use aids e.g. floats, woggles etc.

Stage 2: Developing safe entries into the water, including jumping in, travel up to 15 metres on the front and back, rotate unaided to regain upright positions. Swimmers may use aids e.g. floats, woggles etc.

Stage 3: Developing safe entries including submersion, travel up to 25 metres on the front and back, progress rotation skills and water safety knowledge.

Stage 4: Developing an understanding of buoyancy through a range of skills, refining kicking technique for all strokes, and swimming to a given standard as directed by the ASA.

Stage 5: Developing ‘watermanship’ through sculling and treading water skills, and complete rotation, also performing all strokes to a given standard as directed by the ASA.

Stage 6: Developing effective swimming skills including coordinated breathing developing the water safety aspects and understanding of preparation for exercise.

Stage 7: Developing stroke technique, incorporating skills learnt and combining them to develop a linked route and complete successfully an obstacle course that combines a variety of skills accomplished throughout stages 1-7.
