Qualification notes

Swim England Level 1 Qualified Candidates: Please note that we no longer accept Swim England Level 1 qualifications. If you hold this qualification, we are happy to consider your application, but we will request that you attend an STA Level 2 Award course prior to starting your role with us. We will also ask you to attend a poolside assessment as part of the interview process. We can arrange for you to attend an in-house course if preferred.

If you are offered a contracted role and choose to qualify with us, we will fund 100% of the STA Level 2 Award course subject to you signing a training agreement. If you are offered a casual role and choose to qualify with us, we will fund 50% of the course subject to you signing a training agreement.

STA Qualified Candidates: Please note that the STA has two qualifications – Level 2 Award and Level 2 Certificate. Although both are Level 2, the Certificate is a higher qualification. To differentiate, we refer to teachers who are Award qualified as Level 1 (paid at Level 1 rate) and teachers who are Certificate qualified as Level 2 (paid at Level 2 rate).
