School swimming should be a priority from reception, schools struggle to afford the cost of coaches to take the children to the lessons as well as the costs for swimming teachers, pool hire etc. The government removing VAT from independent Swimschool’s. This would make lessons much more affordable across the board. As an independent swimschool we are continually hit with hire costs increasing and VAT
Swimming is a life skill and should be of the highest priority when it comes to ensuring our children are safe in and around our waterways.
