1 SCHOOL SWIMMING A GUIDE TO RESOURCES, COURSES AND SUPPORT FROM THE AMATEUR SWIMMING ASSOCIATION

2 In order to assist you in the delivery of school swimming, the Amateur Swimming Association (ASA) has developed various resources and courses specifically designed to support the National Curriculum key stages 1 4. You will appreciate that learn to swim and water safety, like any other subject area, involves close attention to session planning, structured learning progression and motivation for achievement. The quality of teaching will play an important role in the delivery of an effective swimming programme. Swimming is not only a fun activity but also an important life skill and its value is reflected in its status as a requirement at Key Stage 2 and as a core element of the National Curriculum. This guide is designed to give you an easy overview of some of the courses, resources, motivational award schemes and funding opportunities available for anyone involved in teaching school swimming. Please read on for more details.

3 Key Stage 1/2 Courses The following courses have been specifically designed with teachers in mind Primary School Teacher Certificate for the Teaching of Swimming A qualification ideal for teachers who will actively assist in their pupils swimming lessons. The course consists of Module 1 (7 hours) and Module 2 (10 hours). These can be taken separately or as a combined module 1 and 2 course (17 hours). Adults Other Than Teachers (AOTT s) Course This course is designed for adults wanting to assist in school swimming sessions. Ideal for teaching/classroom assistants or supportive parents, the course is 6 hours plus 1 hour pre and post course work. ASA Level 2 Teacher Certificate Progress from completion of both modules of the Primary School Teacher Certificate to the ASA Level 2 qualification. This allows you to conduct swimming lessons unsupervised. Many schools have found having their own Level 2 qualified teacher gives them more flexibility in delivering school swimming than hiring suitably qualified swim teachers. For more details contact the ASA Business Development Team on or E.mail: BusinessTeam@swimming.org Resources The following resources are available to support pool and classroom delivery National Curriculum Resource Pack (NCRP) All you need to introduce water safety in the classroom and the pool.
