About Us

Brighton Swimming School has been offering swimming lessons to both children and adults in Brighton for over 25 years, teaching over 1000 swimmers a week. Founded in 1988 by Paul Smith, Brighton Swimming School started as a small, one week intensive course that has slowly grown into the varied and successful programme you see today. Our main pool is our own, at the Brighton Swimming Centre.

The swimming school provides three, twelve week terms as well as intensive courses during all school holidays. These are great for our regular swimmers and new customers, acting as a great way to boost children's swimming skills and technique. BSS has always been developed quality at the forefront and our greatest asset is our staff.

Our staff are carefully selected to ensure high standards of teaching and safety, helping to promote the excellent relationship we already enjoy with our swimmers and their parents. Our teachers all hold an Swim England/STA Level 2 teaching qualification, whilst our assistants hold an Swim England/STA Level 1 qualification. Safety is central to our aims and each session is overseen by two RLSS qualified lifeguards along with a supervisor to manage poolside. All our staff are DBS checked.
