Prescot's Learn to Swim program operates around Knowsley Leisure & Culture
Park smaller 25m pool. The pool has a moveable floor which enables the children
to learn in a safe environment. The higher groups may be taken into the main
pool under extra supervision for work that cannot be done in the small pool.
The program follows Swim England's Learn to Swim framework for Stages 1 to 7.
