King Edwards Swimming Pool

There’s been no real progress in my son’s swimming. He was due to move up a level last term, but because the instructor changes every couple of weeks, no one actually tracks his progress, they don’t keep any proper records at all. For the past three months he’d been swimming confidently freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke and then suddenly a new instructor came in and put him back on a float. We were really taken aback, and my son was upset as it made him feel like he was starting again from level 0. It’s knocked his confidence completely. I spoke to reception, and their attitude was basically that they didn’t care. They said there was nothing they could do and that the regular instructor would check when she was back. When I asked if they kept any progress records, they said they only provide something at the end of term. It’s honestly so frustrating. I’ve got no hope of seeing any real improvement at this rate. Best of luck, I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone who genuinely wants their child to progress. Cheers.

Just completed a block of adult swimming lessons - the instructor (Jordan) was absolutely first class - tailoring each lesson to my individual needs. He was so patient and encouraging I was able to achieve something I thought I never could…. !!
