Government guidance means our leisure centres are closed; but this does not mean our training and qualifications should stop.

This blended learning course will allow you to complete the theoretical elements of your qualification online through interactive activities.

We have then arranged your practical training day for the 26th Feb 2021, but times are still to be confirmed. Your practical poolside learning will include teaching school swimming lessons, so you can gain practical experience.
