Bronze Academy
The Bronze Academy is run in partnership with the Aylesbury Vale Community Trust who operates the Aqua Vale Swimming & Fitness Centre in Aylesbury and the Swan Pool in Buckingham.
Swimmers are invited from the Aqua Vale lesson programme by their teachers (or by the
Maxwell coaching staff) to attend once a week. The Bronze Academy is an hour in duration and is a supplement to the swimmers usual 30 minute ‘learn to swim’ lesson each week. The Bronze Academy aims to develop all four strokes along with an introduction to “starts and turns.
The Bronze ‘Plus’ Academy is a progression from the Bronze Academy and swimmers usually enter directly from the initial Bronze group. Some advanced swimmers are invited directly from
from the Aqua Vale lesson programme by their teachers (or by the Maxwell coaching staff) to attend once a week – bypassing the Bronze Academy.
The Bronze Plus Academy is an hour in duration and is also a supplement to the swimmers usual 30 minute ‘learn to swim’ lesson each week. We aim to develop all four strokes along with an introduction to “starts and turns”.
Payments for the Bronze and Bronze ‘Plus’ Academy remain payable to Aylesbury
Vale Community Trust and are £2 per lesson for children that were selected from the leisure centres ‘learn to swim’ programme. Swimmers from other ‘private learn to swim schools’ or ‘schools lessons’ can also join the Bronze Academy but pay £4 per lesson instead.
Written assessments on each swimmer do not take place – you receive these through your normal 30 minute weekday lesson, however if you would like feedback on how your child is
progressing please speak with your child’s Academy Teacher who will be happy to do this.
