Making Waves in Primary Education

Eliminate the stress and logistical nightmares of traditional primary school swimming with Swim:ED.

Our innovative, on-site pop-up pool solution ensures safety and quality on your school playground, which preserves precious learning time, simplifies your staffing, and aligns with national curriculum requirements.

About - Swimming education on your school playground 

Swim:ED redefines primary school swimming and water safety, by bringing it directly to your school. Picture a heated pop-up pool securely enclosed within a temporary modular structure on your playground. With qualified instructors and lifeguards, we eliminate the need for off-site travel, preserving precious study time. It’s more than convenience; it’s a commitment to creating a safe, inclusive, and vibrant learning environment, where every child acquires vital swimming and water safety skills. Dive into Swim:ED and navigate towards a future, where every pupil is confident, competent and safe in the water. 

Why Swimming? A vital life skill every child deserves 

Swimming is an essential life skill. Alarmingly, 1 in 4 children in England leave primary school unable to swim 25 metres or perform crucial safe self-rescue—this could surge to 1 in 3 by 2025, if no action is taken. Swim:ED is here to stem the tide, ensuring every pupil is equipped with this life-saving skill. 

On-Site Swimming From £10,750

Every primary school is unique and when all costs are considered, Swim:ED is often more cost-effective than a traditional swimming programme. We offer delivery models over 5 to 7 weeks, accommodating up to 180 children in swimming and water safety lessons. 

Easily navigate space challenges with our temporary changing rooms, starting at just £250, and enhance your Swim:ED journey by incorporating extra-curricular clubs into your programme, utilising Pupil Premium or PE and Sport Premium funding.
