At the end of each stage, each child will receive a stage completion e-certificate.
SWIMMING TEACHERS ASSOCIATION UK
The STA UK International Learn to Swim Programme recognises that pupils learn to swim at many different ages and progress at varying paces.

But at the same time, both parties recognise that at no stage should safety, quality standards or consistency be compromised.
