To ask about swimming lessons?

I’d like to know what the average price is for lessons and how many are in your dc’s class?

Do you have to pay for the badges and certificates on top?

it varies here from £10 -£16 per lesson.

For £10 there’s 6-10 in the class and for £16 there’s 2/3 in the class.

A certificate and badge is £4.50 on top. Didn’t know if this was the norm and if so, how much your dc’s certificates and badges cost? (And before anyone says don’t bother with them, my dd loves them!)

Aibu to think badges and certificates should be included? (Happy to be told I am being unreasonable if it’s the norm to pay on top!)

Think it’s standard to have to pay for the badges and certificates as an extra

Loveduppenguin · 06/09/2025 18:52

€10 and there’s probably about 8 in the class

For our girls the cost is £32 per month (lessons 50 weeks of the year)
1 x30 minute lesson per week. 6 in a class

£40 a month, 12 kids in a class - the certificates and badges for each level/stage are free. If you want the badges for the other achievements you pay for those

I think you must go to a busy leisure centre chain.

Lessons for my children are £13.50 and there are three in total in the class. Badges and certificates are extra.

£25 per month roughly, class size around 6 to 8 children.

user1476613140 · 06/09/2025 19:08

Certificate given out for free.

Bromeliads · 06/09/2025 19:31

£150 a term, six in the class, badges and certificates are free.

We have had tried a couple of options…

local leisure centre £25 a month, 6-8 to a group

local swimming teacher £64 a month 6-8

private lessons £44 month 2 in a group (I have twins so worked out a bargain per child!)

but we had to pay extra for certificates for all those options
