Stage 1-7
Learn to Swim Stage 1-7 Awards
The Learn to Swim Stage 1-7 Awards are divided into progressive stages that make up the core, national syllabus of learning to swim for primary school aged children.
Each badge rewards development of essential aquatic skills so swimmers become confident, competent, and safe in the water. Every award has a clear list of outcomes, giving you and your child full visibility of what is needed before moving up.
Our teachers champion each milestone with positive feedback and beautifully presented certificates that mark their progress at Duck N Dive.
Motivation between stages
I CAN Awards
Swim England I CAN Awards are perfect for all ages and abilities, recognising milestones from the first bubble, jump, and float.
They keep morale high between distance and stage awards and can be awarded at any time by your child's swimming teacher. I CAN Awards are brilliant for swimmers who might be stuck at a particular level, and every badge comes with a certificate celebrating nine types of skill development.
Your child enjoys the encouragement while you see steady progress highlighted in a fun, professional keepsake.
