What’s so special about British Swim School?

Here’s what we do differently:

✅ British Swim School Water-Safety Lessons work for students of ANY AGE. Our swim programs are tailored for anyone that is at least 3 months of age to any age or ability, including adults and special ability classes.

✅ We teach WITHOUT FLOATIES, because they give children a false sense of safety and do not prepare them for real-life emergencies. We only use them for playtime, never for skill development. This includes adults as well.

✅ No one has more expertise. Our lessons are based on 42 YEARS OF TEACHING EXPERIENCE. We have taught hundreds of thousands of students our way, we currently teach 17,000 lessons per week – and we have seen it all. Every child and adult is different, and our program is purposely designed to help any student no matter the age or ability, including special needs children and young adults.

✅ We are the only school who teaches children in their STREET-CLOTHES during our Survival Week several times per year, because real-life accidents happen fully clothed and a child needs to know how this extra weight feels.

✅ British Swim School instructors are amazingly FRIENDLY and have been HIGHLY TRAINED in how to teach children swimming skills. They know much more than just how to swim well.

✅ British Swim School lessons are GOAL-ORIENTED to accomplish the fastest progress for any student. Master your 5 goals, and you will graduate to the next level.

✅ British Swim School lessons are held year-round ongoing and NOT IN SESSIONS, because CONSISTENCY is key in learning a new skill. You can start any time.

✅ Students learn better in SMALL GROUPS, that’s why British Swim School’s beginner classes are 4:1 max.

✅ British Swim School students graduate and advance INDIVIDUALLY, no student is held back or pressured by the progress of the group.
