Our Swimming Classes
The Coral Magson Swim School offers the highest standard of tuition in the area
We have a unique approach to swim lessons in York, in addition to the small class sizes and high teacher to child ratio. We also move children up to the next class as they require it rather than keep a child in a class until the end of term.
This enables a child to progress at their own speed rather than at the speed of the swim school. This individual approach has a proven track record for a swim school which has built its reputation by word of mouth. The lessons are 30minutes in duration.
Our swimming instructors are all fully qualified and CRB checked. Our lessons are covered by comprehensive insurance and our pools undergo regular safety and water quality tests and inspections.
