Learn to Swim
Swimming Lessons
At Plymouth College, our Learn To Swim programme meticulously follows the Swim England National Curriculum, a world-leading framework for swimming development. Children progress through structured stages, building fundamental skills, stroke techniques and vital water safety knowledge at a pace that suits them.
Our qualified teachers are dedicated to creating a supportive and engaging atmosphere fostering enjoyment and confidence in the water. We believe every child should leave primary school able to swim confidently and safely for at least 25 metres, and our programme is designed to achieve just that, offering a clear pathway to swimming proficiency.
Exceptional Pool Facilities
Learning to swim at Plymouth College takes place in our newly refurbished 25-metre pool, offering a private and dedicated environment free from public distractions. This exclusive facility provides the ideal setting for focused learning, ensuring children feel comfortable and secure as they develop their skills.
The quiet, controlled atmosphere, combined with the pristine conditions of our modern pool, allows our small, focused classes to thrive. We provide a premium learning experience without the premium price, ensuring accessibility to high-quality swimming instruction within a first-class private facility.
Building Confidence & Skills
Our programme is more than just learning strokes; it’s about nurturing confidence, promoting water safety and developing essential life skills. Through small, focused classes, each child receives personalised attention from our qualified instructors, allowing them to overcome challenges and celebrate every achievement.
We create a fun and encouraging environment where children can build resilience and independence in the water. This holistic approach ensures that participants not only become competent swimmers but also develop a lifelong appreciation for aquatic activities, equipped with the knowledge and skills for safe enjoyment in and around water.
