Changes to Swim School from 9th March 2020
As of 9th March we will be moving over to Learn2 leisure management. This will enable customers to track progress through the Home Portal. To facilitate these essential changes, we have had to make changes to how we operate. Payments are now made in blocks of 10 - this will eradicate busy and difficult re-enrolment periods over time. A direct debit option is still available. To best utilize this system, we need an up to date email address to contact you on. You may see teachers using electronic devices - these are used to easily update the system on your childs competency and progress. As our staff and receptionists have become very well versed with our old system, please be patient as we learn and adapt to Learn2. If you have any queries, or need a link to activate your childs Home Portal, please contact us on swimschool@aquacentre.co.uk.
For all queries, comments and questions and for all new enquiries you will find a form at the bottom of this page.
