In 2025 we taught year 1 all the way to year 6 at Belmont castle Academy each year group had one week of swimming lessons. Each child made 100% tracked progress in every year group. with each year group having one week of swimming lessons this allowed us to focus on getting them swimming and improving different strokes, whilst also making swimming fun and enjoyable.
Here is some feedback from the teachers and students at Belmont during our time there.
“The swimming teachers are really nice and the water is clean.” Year 3
“ I loved that we got to learn new things” Year 5
“Friendly staff, regular backwashes and maintaining of the water. changing rooms have plenty of space for groups. All the children enjoyed the sessions even the non-swimmers “ LSA at Belmont
