Eight teachers and three lanes is not eight classes.

The ratio caps the class and the lane caps how many classes exist. Which of those two is binding at half four on a Tuesday is the whole scheduling problem.

  • The ratio is the smaller number

    A teacher takes four in Stage 1 and six in Stage 3. The class closes at what is safe rather than at what the lane could physically hold.

  • A lane in use is a lane in use

    Water with eight children and a teacher in it is not available to a second class, so nothing is ever scheduled on top of it.

  • Lanes run alongside each other

    Three lanes and four stages at once is a set of parallel tracks, not a list, and reading it as a list is how a Tuesday gets oversold.

Three crew members on one timeline, each with their jobs laid out across the working day so gaps are easy to spot.

Four to a teacher, and it holds.

When the class is full it is full, and the place that comes free because a family moved away goes back on the page rather than into a notebook.

Four years, one child, one record.

Stages swum, terms paid and the Tuesday slot they have held since they were five, all against the same child rather than a folder per year.

One app for every booking

Everything you need to run your swimming lessons business.

Online booking

For your swimming lessons, customers can take a real class place online when a wet weekend changes plans, with the remaining room updated at once.

Scheduling

For your swimming lessons, put after-work classes, weekend blocks and each instructor on one timetable that shows exactly where the open spaces sit.

Standing bookings

For your swimming lessons, carry a regular weekly booking through a six-week block or longer run, ending on your chosen date or session count.

Ratios are the ceiling

A class stops at the number of children one teacher can safely take, which is a smaller number than the lane holds and the one that binds.

One lane, one class

A lane in use is a lane in use, so a second class is never scheduled into water that already has eight children and a teacher in it.

Email reminders

For your swimming lessons, email the booking details straight away and the reminder you choose before the class, useful when rain reshapes the week.

Customers

For your swimming lessons, a returning customer’s earlier sessions and payments stay together, so another block can be booked without starting cold.

Team

For your swimming lessons, set each instructor’s hours around the real weekly roster, so a class is only offered when the teacher and room line up.

Payments

For your swimming lessons, mark cash or bank transfer on Free, or take the session fee by card with Pro when the customer confirms the class place.

Common questions.

Yes, set capacity to your usable lane and teacher capacity; confirmed bookings reduce the places left and online booking stops when the final lesson place is taken, through the wet-week diary.

Yes, one booking can take more than one lesson place, and every place is counted against the same swimming lesson cap, through the wet-week diary.

Yes, set a weekly or monthly standing booking and choose whether it ends never, on a date or after a specific number of swimming lessons, through the wet-week diary.

The cancelled lesson place no longer occupies the swimming lesson capacity, so the timetable and remaining availability stay accurate, through the wet-week diary.

Yes, switch on email confirmations and reminders so attendees receive the swimming lesson details without a manual message, through the wet-week diary.

Online card payment for the swimming lesson is available with Pro; on Free, record cash and bank-transfer payments manually, through the wet-week diary.
