# Westonbirt Swim Academy
Westonbirt Swim Academy delivers structured, high-quality swimming instruction for children aged 3–16 and adults at Westonbirt Sports Centre in Tetbury. Operating from a 25-metre heated indoor pool, the academy provides small group lessons capped at 6–8 students, alongside private 1:1 and 2:1 tuition for those seeking more individualised attention.
The academy distinguishes itself through several key strengths. Its instructors are fully qualified, DBS-checked professionals with over 25 years combined experience. All programmes follow Swim England's nationally recognised Learn to Swim frameworks, ensuring swimmers progress through accredited stages from Duckling Awards (ages 3+) through to Stages 8–10. This structured approach creates transparent progression and genuine achievement milestones rather than arbitrary advancement.
Year-round operation eliminates lengthy breaks that typically interrupt progress, maintaining consistency in skill development. Classes are ability-based, allowing children to build confidence at their own pace without pressure. Parents gain visibility of progress through a private customer portal and receive regular communication about holiday crash courses, galas, and facility activities.
The inclusive philosophy ensures every swimmer feels supported and motivated, whether beginning water confidence or refining advanced aquatic skills. Small class sizes guarantee each student receives adequate individual attention, while the all-ages offering means families can access lessons simultaneously. Free parking and integration with Westonbirt Sports Centre facilities add practical convenience.
