Welcome to British Swim School

The pool is located in the basement of P.S. 16 in the Paulus Hook neighborhood in downtown Jersey City. Please use the ramp entrance on Sussex street and meet our staff poolside.

This indoor pool is open year-round and is heated. Please note: Our smaller Waldo location nearby offers our Premium Plus program with lower student: teacher ratios of 3:1 instead of 4:1, in a more intimate environment. For more info click here.

Fee Details

  • 2X THE CLASSES = 3X THE RESULTS! British Swim School recommends 2x per week classes for every student who wants to see fast results and save in the long run, as students who take swim lessons 2x per week reach their goals 3x faster. This means that they also need fewer classes in total, saving money in the long run. Why? You pay a lower tuition (*Best Value*) AND need to pay for less total classes over the course of the program, compared to 1x per week. Reaching to your goal quicker and for less money – Smart!
  • You are automatically eligible for our *Best Value* price if:
    • One student takes lessons 2x per week
    • Siblings take at least one lesson per week each
    • An adult and a child take at least one lesson per week each
  • ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP FEE: $39 per student / $50 per family. (This fee is waived for “JCC of Bayonne” members and “Xchange at Secaucus Junction” residents – please mention this when you enroll, so we can check and waive the fee.). This membership fee will be included in your initial payment.
  • FIRST MONTH’S TUITION: The classes of the first calendar month are paid upon enrollment on a prorated basis – you pay for a prorated monthly flat fee from your desired start date until the end of this month. You can start as early as today!
  • After this initial payment, we will post your upcoming month tuition on the 22nd of the current month for the next upcoming month tuition. On the 25th of each month, your card will automatically be charged  for the following upcoming month’s tuition based on the monthly flat fee.
  • RISK-FREE GUARANTEE! We do not offer trial classes. We know from our 35+ years of experience that you cannot judge the quality of a swim program in just one lesson, but we offer a Risk-Free Guarantee. If you enroll, take two consecutive classes and are not satisfied, we will refund you all tuition fees that you pre-paid, including the fees for the two lessons you have already taken. Please note: You have to take two lessons in the water with us for this, we will not provide refunds if you leave after just one class, as we want your child to get the chance to get acclimated, which rarely happens in just one class.
  • All classes are 30-minutes long.
  • All classes, including adults, are conducted in small groups (up to 4:1 student/instructor ratio max, Tadpole and Stroke Development classes up to 6:1 student/instructor ratio max).
  • We allow Make-Up lessons for missed classes
  • For the following month’s tuition, the amount is a monthly flat fee whether there are 4 or 5 classes in that month.
  • As payment we accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover and Amex. No cash or check payments.
