SEQ Level 2 Teaching Swimming - Practical Sessions Only

During the Covid-19 pandemic, we adapted this qualification and split the theory and practical elements into two courses.

This course covers the practical sessions and assessment and is for those who have already completed their theoretical training including; e-learning, Zoom webinars, all associated lesson plans and theory assessments.

Due to current Covid-19 guidelines and to ensure everyone's safety, we will be keeping the amount of time you spend at the pool to a minimum so these practical sessions will consist of:

  • 3 x 3 hr Zoom Webinars - During these sessions, the tutor will cover the last of your practical topics, a venue orientation and planning for your swimming lesson assessments.
  • 4 x half-day Practical assessment sessions at the pool – these will consist of a meet and greet, planning and preparation, lesson delivery of at least six 30-minute swimming lessons, peer observations and feedback. You will then also need to complete evaluations and an action plan.
  • There will then be a final webinar once you have finished the above where you will receive 1-2-1 feedback from your tutor. A whole day is listed below, however, you will only be required for up to 1 hour.

Course fees

The final payment to cover your practical sessions and assessment will be £327. If you have already paid for your course, please email iosadmin@swimming.org for a voucher to book with.

If you are on the Combined Level 1 and 2 programme, you will need to pay an additional £207 for your Level 1 Swimming Assistant practical assessment, bringing your total to £534.

The additional practical session for your Level 1 assessment can be found here.

Please add both practical sessions to your basket before checking out. Your tutor will arrange your additional pool slot during the first webinar listed in the itinerary below.

Course content

The course is delivered through a mixture of webinars, virtual activities and practical poolside learning. You will participate in at least six 30-minute swimming lessons to gain hands-on practical experience.

You will put the theory you have already learnt into practice and demonstrate:

  • The responsibilities and role of a swimming teacher
  • How the scientific principles of swimming impact on development
  • How to develop core aquatic skills and the four strokes
  • How to identify and correct common swimming faults

  • How to plan and deliver inclusive lessons for different levels of ability, including adaptations for swimmers with special educational needs and disabilities
  • Key teaching and management skills including class management and assessment, organisational skills, behaviour management, communication skills, and teaching methods
