Wy Swim With JB?

At JB our mission is to ensure all of our swimmers are able to learn at their own pace and develop their water confidence and swimming technique. Our friendly, encouraging and supportive staff utilize their knowledge of swimming and extensive background in education to deliver fun, engaging and progressive lessons that are suitable for all children, regardless of their swimming ability or water confidence. We offer a range of diverse swimming options, from baby and toddler, 1-1, and small groups lessons, school swimming and our innovative Swim at School service.

We recently got the call from OFSTED informing us that they would be performing a deep dive into our PE curriculum. JB Sports very forthcoming with offering support in our preparation. Within an hour, we had an in depth discussion with the curriculum lead at JB Sports, who was fantastic. On the day itself, we felt confident as a team in answering questions thrown at us by OFSTED which was helped without question by the support of the JB Sports staff and their curriculum leaders.
