What is AquaEd?

AquaEd is Stevenage Leisure’s successful swimming lesson scheme, teaching thousands of children to swim each week using the Amateur Swimming Association’s National Plan for Teaching Swimming (NPTS).

AquaEd offers a new approach to swimming with the emphasis being on fun and enjoyment. Our teachers spend time interacting with your child to make sure they get the most from each lesson they attend. We reward every effort made no matter how small.

When are the classes?

All SLL pools run a mix of classes to suit all needs. Classes operate during the day, after school and at weekends. Whether you are a beginner or want to be a competitive swimmer, we have a lesson suitable for you. You can enter on to the Scheme at any stage, dependant on age and ability.

SLL is working in partnership with the ASA to deliver the NPTS, therefore ensuring the AquaEd swimming scheme has different levels and clearly defined progression, so there is a swimming lesson for everyone.

How do I join?

AquaEd delivers swimming lessons for 50 weeks of the year through 5 ten-week courses. Anyone interested in joining the AquaEd swimming scheme should place their child’s name on the waiting list at reception. As soon as a place becomes available, SLL will contact you to confirm the day, time and start date.

Why AquaEd?

All our swimming teachers are ASA qualified to a high standard. They attend continual professional development training courses to ensure their knowledge is up to date.

Our teacher to student ratios are very low allowing us to work with small teaching groups.

Our students work on a continual assessment basis so have an ongoing opportunity to succeed.

At the end of each course your child will receive a report keeping you up to date with their progress. On completion of a level or distance a certificate and badge are awarded, these can be purchased at reception.
