Question 1

What are the costs?

Accepted Answer

The cost for the hire of our pool, lockable marquee and swimming teachers for 2 weeks STARTS at a rate of £5200.

Question 2

Are there any additional costs?

Accepted Answer

There will be additional costs of water and electricity. Other companies have calculated that on average the  water and electricity costs for 2 weeks is £400. The only other additional cost is to install an outdoor 3 phase  electrical point if you do not already have one. This is obviously a one-off and would be incurred for the first time  you have the pool only.

Question 3

What are you health and safety protocols?

Accepted Answer

During the school day, a member of our team will be at the pool at all times, even when the pool is not in use.  When the school is closed, the marquee will be locked and the ladder to gain access to the pool is removed. We  will be using 'We Do Events' who will be providing the lockable marquee and using their insurance for this too.

Question 4

Do we need a risk assessment or our own insurance?

Accepted Answer

No, you do not need to worry. Khickster Entertainment LTD will provide and have any risk assessments you will  need. Everything is covered under Khickster Entertainment LTD insurance policies.

Question 5

What are the teaching ratios?

Accepted Answer

We recommend a maximum ratio of 1:10, however these can be flexible. For example for non-swimmers we like  to work with 1:5 as this will allow the most progress to be made. For more confident swimmers, this can be up to  1:12.

Question 6

What are the changing protocols?

Accepted Answer

This is dependent on each school. Most schools can find a secure area for children to get changed in. If there is  no suitable space inside the school, our Marquee company can provide an extra space at an additional cost of  £150, which would include a divider to allow one group to change in at a time. If changing space is limited, we  can look at single sex lessons to make this more accessible.

Question 7

What is a typical timetable?

Accepted Answer

This is dependent on each school. We create a timetable that is personalised to your schools’ goals and needs  and this can be discussed in your pre-set up meeting. We recommend 30 minutes intense lessons. It is your  choice whether you would prefer to target specific year groups or provide lessons for more year groups  throughout the school.

Example Timetable: 1 Form Entry School:

Each year group to be split in 2 with roughly 15 children in each group (depending on class size). This timetable is  covering 3-year groups, with one class per year. Each slot will allow for 2 groups, meaning ratios are 1 teacher to  roughly 7/8 children, allowing for much more personalised learning.

9:05 – 9:35: 1st 1/2 of year 4 
9:40 – 10:10: 2nd 1/2 of year 4 
10:45 – 11:15: 1st 1/2 of year 5 
11:20 -11:50: 2nd ½ of year 5 
12:30 – 1:00: 1:1 / SEN Group if wanted during pupils’ lunch group 
1:15 – 1:45: 1st 1/2 of year 6 
1: 50 – 2:20: 2nd ½ of year 6

BONUS LESSON  
2:25 – 2:55 – Monday, Thursday and Friday: Confidence Booster/ Additional Support for students who we  identify and think could benefit for some extra pool time.
