  1. BAILIEBOROUGH SWIM SCHOOL has two group swimming lesson types as follows:
  • (A) Weekly lessons, which can be purchased in 8 swim sessions/credits with continuous assessment. Each lesson will take place on the same day, at the same time every week for the duration of your credits. When your credit runs out, your child is kicked off the system and no longer on the teachers register. Therefore it is important and your responsibility to top up our swim sessions either via your HOME-PORTAL or at reception.
  • (B) Intensive swim lessons of 5 days over a school holiday period. Each lesson on our Intensive course is at the same time every day for 5 consecutive days. All lessons will start on time at the agreed start time. If your child arrives late for the scheduled lesson, we regret that we cannot extend your lesson time and it will finish at the scheduled end time.

**Please Note:

Bailieborough Swim School swim instructors will assess each child accordingly and ensure that each child is placed into a level that is suitable for their ability. Bailieborough Swim School swim instructors may add additional activities into each separate level to ensure the highest possible standard within the lesson.
