Introducing the four Frameworks for swimming teachers

Our Learn to Swim Programme takes the non-swimmer on a journey through four specialised Frameworks. Use the links below to learn more about each Framework.

• Swim England Pre-School Framework
• Swim England Learn to Swim Framework (Learn to Swim Stages 1-7)
• Swim England Aquatic Skills Framework (Learn to Swim Stages 8-10)
• Swim England Adult Swimming Framework

These start with the basics of learning to swim and end with learning skills for sports such as water polo or diving. There is also a Framework for teaching adults to swim.

Each Framework sets out clear expectations on standards and outcomes. Teachers will find this structure helps to:

• deliver a consistent standard of lesson content and quality
• monitor a swimmer’s progress.
