Swimming for every age and every stage

Dolphin Swim School is a local, Swim England-affiliated swim school offering high-quality lessons with fully qualified and experienced instructors, including those trained to support SEND learners.

We provide small group and private lessons for all ages – from 6 months to adult – following the full Swim England pathway, from baby and toddler sessions through to Stage 10. Lessons are held at our welcoming pool venues in Tring and Aston Clinton, serving families across Bucks and Herts.

At Dolphin Swim School, we’re passionate about making swimming a positive, confidence-building experience. Our friendly team is here to support every swimmer on their journey to a lifelong love of the water.
