Lesson Fees

For specific details please contact the office directly. All fees must be paid in advance of the start date of a course (please refer to invoice). Swimmers will not be allowed to participate in any swimming lessons until the fees are paid in full. Fees may be paid in accordance with the terms as discussed with the office. Any bank charges we receive for returned payments will be charged at a rate of £20.00

 

Cancellations

If you wish to cancel your membership you may do so by contacting us in writing at any time before your first lesson. You will receive a refund of tuition fees paid less a 20% administration charge.

However, after this period, we cannot provide credits or refunds if you are unable to attend any of the lessons for any reason.

 

In the unforeseen circumstances where SwimSindy makes the decision to cancel classes your cancelled class will be carried on to the next term or you can have a catch up class on another day if there is availability.

 

Medical Conditions and Individual Needs

SwimSindy cannot accept responsibility for the medical condition or other needs of any swimmer unless a full disclosure of the details has been made to the office by the swimmer or the parent or guardian of a swimmer when first registering the swimmer for lessons, or following any medical condition being confirmed during a course of lessons after the swimmer has been accepted for tuition.

 

Valuables

SwimSindy will not accept liability for the loss of or damage to any personal belongings brought to any session and you are therefore requested to ensure that no valuable items are brought to the swimming lessons.

 

 

 

 

Attendance

Swimmers, parents, guardians, siblings, must observe the venue’s entry rules.

Facility staff can retain the right to refuse admission.

Swimmers are to arrive on poolside in good time for their lesson. Please don’t be late as this can hold back the warm up process of the class.

Pupils should be collected from poolside at the end of their lesson on time.

No child will be released until they are collected by an appointed responsible adult.

The responsible adult must remain in the venue premises for the duration of the lesson.

No refund or “catch-up lesson” will be offered by either company where a child fails to attend or is refused permission to attend any sessions, unless prior agreement has been reached with the office.

 

Teachers

SwimSindy cannot guarantee that the same teacher will teach all term, they will try their best to keep some consistency.

All our teachers are Swim England Level 2 qualified teachers.

 

Behaviour

In the event of a swimmer, parent, guardian, sibling or other associate refusing to obey an instruction from a member of staff, behaving in an unruly manner towards a member of staff or any other person, or causing damage to pool premises or any of the furniture fixtures or equipment in those premises, the swimmer shall not be permitted to continue with the lessons. SwimSindy shall then have the right to terminate the contract without further notice and without being required to offer any credit or refund to the swimmer and the swimmer shall not be accepted for any future course organised by either company.

 

Condition of pool premises

Whilst SwimSindy will make all reasonable efforts to ensure that the condition of the pool premises, including the changing rooms, washing facilities, the pool and poolside area are in suitable condition, they do not accept liability for any injury to a swimmer which may be caused by any defect and further advise that any claim arising from such a defect must be addressed to the proprietors of the pool premises.

 

 

 

 

Transmission of Infections

Any swimmer known to be or found to be suffering from any infectious ailment or condition will not be allowed to participate in the lesson and it is the responsibility of each swimmer or (in the case of a child swimmer) the parent or guardian of the swimmer to ensure that the swimmer is fit

well enough to participate. SwimSindy will not accept liability for any infection passed to a swimmer by another swimmer on the course or in the pool.
