FAQs

What age should my child start lessons?
Lessons can start from the age of 4 years upwards, and it is never too late to start.  The International Learn to Swim Programme in association with Swimming Teachers Association caters for all ages and abilities.

Should my child be swimming all year round?​
At Dolphin Swimming Academy we advise year round swimming as the continuity it brings helps the child to develop and retain key information. Seasonal swimming lessons tend to see swimming skills regress and retraining is often required.

What is your child to teacher ratio?
There is a maximum of 6 children per class.

Will my child have the same instructor every lesson?
Where possible we try to have the same teachers every week, when cover is required for a teacher we will have a fully trained replacement ready to step in.
