Swim School
The National Plan for Teaching Swimming (NPTS) is an ‘all-inclusive programme’ which takes the non-swimmer from his or her first splash to developing confidence and competence in the water. The national governing body for swimming, the Amateur Swimming Association (ASA), has produced a national syllabus for
Aquatics, in order to equip learn to swim providers with the training and tools to deliver a multi aquatic, multi skill programme.
