CPD Workshop –
Client Testimonials

Don’t just take our word for it – hear from educators who have been empowered by attending one of our CPD Workshops.

Read how our workshop is helping educators deliver safe, structured and effective swimming lessons with confidence.

The course was well-organised, with a good balance of theory and practical advice that I can easily apply in my swimming teaching.
Ethan, was highly knowledgeable and approachable. He presented the material clearly and answered questions with useful examples. I found the focus on water safety particularly useful which has given me more confidence in creating a safe environment for pupils.
The workshop was engaging and interactive, and the resources provided will be very helpful when planning and delivering swimming lessons. Overall, the course has made me feel much more confident about teaching swimming.

Harry MatthewsClass Teacher
I would highly recommend this course. The course leader had a lovely welcoming manner and was very enthusiastic about swimming and the skills children need. He was very helpful throughout and we were able to practise the skills using floats and noodles. He was very knowledgable. The booklet that we got is ideal. Explanations are clear and concise and each skill has a QR code to watch a video of the skill if we forget. Easy to share with staff at school and will help us to feel confident going forward. Thoroughly enjoyed!! Thank you!

Jane HillClass Teacher
The workshop was very informative and provided me with useful knowledge on how to teach and support swimming going forward, especially as an ECT with no prior swimming teaching experience.
The workbook included is a great resource to have, particularly as it includes QR codes for each activity that link to a video demonstrating how to perform each one and with what it should look like when done correctly in the water.

Lauren RoxburghECT
This was a great course to be a part of. The resources we have been given will vastly improve the teaching during the school swimming lessons.
Ethan had us all practise and demonstrate the strokes and skills. He ran us though all the coaching points to help us improve on the techniques.

Liam HassallPE Coach and Teaching Assistant
Ethan has a lot of experience and clearly has a passion for teaching swimming. His sessions are clear and well-delivered. I would also highly recommend his deep dive booklet.

Thomas DewhurstClass Teacher
Ethan was very professional and very friendly. He was extremely knowledgeable and his style of teaching was very practical. It was a very enjoyable training session and I highly recommend it to schools and teachers who require confidence and knowledge of the National Curriculum objectives for swimming and how to teach them effectively. I will be sharing this with all staff as it is fantastic. The QR codes and videos are a great touch.

Katie LedgertonClass Teacher
The presenter helped me to feel relaxed so I felt I could participate fully. The QR codes linking to the videos in the workbook are a brilliant addition.

Susan SchwartzClass Teacher
2 Pool 4 School delivered excellent CPD that was informative and has given our teachers the confidence to deliver high quality swimming lessons to our pupils.
Ethan’s delivery was personable, informative and engaging. An enjoyable day. The book, I feel, will be the most important take away from today’s session.

Stephen BallPE Lead and Class Teacher
Ethan was extremely informative and gave us plenty of encouragement to practice the swimming skills he taught us. Ethan made us all feel at ease when teaching us the correct methods of teaching swimming. This book is so easy to follow and has a QR codes with video links.

Helen HalpinTeaching Assistant
The 2 Pool 4 School swimming workshop was extremely informative.
Ethan the host was friendly, knowledgeable and supportive and was able to give all
participants some highly useful information that I’m sure will be used for the rest of my teaching career. Thank you!

Andy RobinsonECT
Ethan was excellent at delivering the swimming training after supporting pupils for the last 3 years I feel more confident to teach them going forward.
The deep dive booklet is simplified easy to use and straight forward.

David HowardClass Teacher
Very, very useful all the different techniques we were taught. Really helpful information and I now feel much more confident teaching swimming.

Jamie ScottSports Apprentice
I had a fantastic day on the swimming CPD. Ethan was professional throughout, with an incredible depth of knowledge. He was reassuring, approachable, and made everyone feel at ease, which really helped build confidence. The day was a perfect balance of practical and theory, and the resources provided were excellent. The clear steps for teaching and challenging children will become my bible for swimming lessons! I would highly recommend this course to anyone.

Kirsty CavanaghClass Teacher
Ethan was incredibly supportive in his delivery, talking us through each stage and modelling well. I felt very comfortable undertaking the training and completing practical activities. It was good fun. The workbook is invaluable and I will be bringing this to all of my lessons with the children. I feel more confident using the workbook to support my delivery.

Samantha DowerClass Teacher
Very informative and interactive training. Love the QR code videos!

Amy SmithClass Teacher
Great course. I think I’ll look into teaching some swimming over the summer! Very easy steps to follow, I will treasure the swimming bible that you gave us!
