If you wish to cancel your lessons, we will require one (1) month’s written notice and your Direct Debit will then be cancelled. We will not be able to reserve slots if you should choose to cancel your lesson. We have a long waiting list and work on a first come first served basis and as soon as a space becomes available it is filled immediately. 

Make-up Lessons Policy

Lessons that are missed are considered forfeited. We do not issue refunds for missed lessons.

We have no room on our programme to accommodate make-up lessons. We have waiting lists of 50+ students and all available space has been taken up. By attending lessons consistently you will see consistent progress.

Illness

Never come to your swimming lesson if you and/or your child have any illness, such as, but not limited to: chest infection, conjunctivitis, measles, impetigo, ear infections, asthma or a heavy cold (first days of the cold). Please DO NOT come to your swimming lesson until the symptoms have cleared at least 48 hours prior to your swimming lesson or when your doctor has given the all-clear.

If your child has just a running nose but feels happy and active you will be able to come to your swimming lesson unless your GP has advised you otherwise. Under no circumstances must anyone suffering from diarrhoea or vomiting attend swimming during illness and up to 2 weeks after full recovery and stools have returned to normal. If you are concerned about any medical condition, we ask that you always check with your GP before coming to any lessons.
