Saturday Swim School

Swimming Lessons from 8.00 am to 1.15 pm

Dulwich Prep London takes pride in offering its Saturday Swim School, continuing its strong and successful swimming traditions. Our goal is to ensure that every child not only has the opportunity to learn to swim but can also access pathways into competitive swimming. All our instructors are Swim England-qualified or equivalent teachers, reflecting the school’s ethos of promoting excellence while ensuring enjoyment for all children in the water.

All new swimmers must be three and a half years or older and undergo an assessment to determine their correct stage before joining. If you are interested in joining our waiting list, please complete the registration of interest form.

From January 2024, our Swim School will follow the Swim England Learn to Swim Framework, covering stages one to ten. This new structure emphasises learning all four strokes at an earlier stage, increases content related to water safety and develops a broader range of core aquatic skills.

Dulwich Prep & Senior Announcement

We are delighted to share that we will be extending our provision from ages 3-13 to ages 2-16. Our first Year 9 cohort will start in September 2025.

As a highly commended school at this year’s Independent School of the Year Awards, we are excited to share that we will become Dulwich Prep & Senior.

We will continue to be a school of choice, maintaining our exceptional Prep offering with the option of staying to GCSE. Our support of families in finding the right senior school or sixth form at the right time for their sons will remain at our core, whether that be at ages 11, 13 or 16.

Our key entry points will be Nursery, Reception, Year 3, Year 7 and Year 9. Occasional places may be available in other year groups.

If you would like your son to be one of our ‘Trailblazers’ and join Year 9 in 2025 or 2026, please get in touch with our Admissions Department for further details.
