A brilliant week of lessons for my children. I wanted them to feel confident in the water ready for their surprise first holiday abroad. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. I was impressed how the instructor was assertive and engaging with the children. My youngest said "it was really fun and I loved doing the breast stroke". Oldest said "The instructor was really funny, and I have learnt a lot of new techniques". Afterwards the children enjoyed playing, colouring and making new friends in The Swim Teams stay and play setting. A nice addition to wind down before a busy day ahead. Thank you to all at the Swim team.

My two children completed the swim camp this week and have loved their lessons. They’ve made excellent progress under excellent tutition but most of all they’ve had so much fun.
The bouncy castle, games and entertainment was a fantastic added bonus.
We’re all really looking forward to the next swim camp 😊

Absolutely amazing team! My little boy started with no water confidence at all. By the end of the week he was putting his face in the water and swimming with armbands. Not only do swim team put on the swimming lessons they also have a play area for before/ after the session with a bouncy castle, Lego, toy cars, educational games etc. Thank you Swim Team!!

About The Swim Team

At The Swim Team, we’re passionate about teaching children to swim – and not just for fun (though that’s important too!).

We believe swimming is a vital life skill, and we’ve been teaching children in and around Leeds for over 20 years.

We’re a family-run business, and our team of dedicated, long-term instructors are all personally trained by our owner, ensuring the highest quality lessons for your child.

Whether you’re experienced in the water or a complete novice, we offer support with stroke development, technique and overall confidence in swimming at our swim school in Scholes Elmet Primary School.

Why Choose The Swim Team for Your Child’s Swimming Lessons?

  • Small Classes & In-Water Teachers: We keep our classes small (5:1 child-to-instructor ratio) and our teachers are always in the water with your child, providing hands-on support and guidance.
  • Safe & Fun Environment: We prioritise your child’s safety above all else. Our teachers are all DBS-checked and trained in water safety. We create a fun, relaxed environment where children can learn at their own pace.
  • Proven Teaching Method: Our Swim England-affiliated programme focuses on building confidence first, then developing technique. We offer certificates and badges to reward progress and keep children motivated.
  • Open Lessons & Parental Viewing: We believe in open communication and transparency. Parents are welcome to watch their children’s lessons from the poolside and see how they develop session by session.
  • Preparing Children for Summer: Our lessons equip children with the skills and confidence they need to enjoy water safely on holidays and in day-to-day life.

Our Approach to Swimming Lessons

We offer swimming lessons at Scholes Elmet Primary School for children from the age of 3, catering to all skill levels, from beginners to advanced swimmers. Our programme includes:

Step 1: Confidence

Building trust and comfort in the water is key to becoming a confident swimmer. Our instructors develop a strong connection with each child, promoting a positive learning environment that inspires a lifelong passion for swimming.

Step 2: Technique

As your child’s confidence grows, we gradually introduce a variety of swimming strokes and techniques, focusing on proper form and efficient movement through the water. Our ultimate aim is to empower your child with the skills to swim safely and have fun in any aquatic environment, be it the local pool or a holiday destination.
