SEQ Level 1 and Level 2 swim teacher qualifications

We're working in partnership with Swim England to host their swim teacher courses.

To become a swimming teacher there are 2 qualifications for you to gain.

Once you have your Level 2 qualification you can then add to your skills with a SEQ Level 2 Teaching Swimming to Babies and Toddler course or a SEQ Level 3 Swim Coordinator programme.

These courses are often held at Medway Park and more details on how to book can be found on the Institute of Swimming website.

Medway Sport Swim Teacher Academy

Medway Sport support the swim teacher training in partnership with Swim England.

If you're interested in finding out more about this programme, including gaining your swim teacher level 1 and level 2 qualifications, you can find the details on the Swim England website.

Once you are booked onto a course please contact us and we will provide the opportunity for mentoring and support on our lesson programme across one of our centres medwaysport@medway.gov.uk. We recommend you shadow a term of lessons (10 -12 weeks) before attending the course, to support your learning, unless you have previous experiences.

This can potentially lead to local work place opportunities with Medway Sport.
