Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

A brand new lesson plans book in the relaunched, reformatted, Leapfrogs design, to help implement swimming education. Aimed at anyone involved in the teaching of swimming at primary school, from qualified private swimming teachers to primary school teachers with and without experience of teaching swimming, and adults other than teachers, who assist with swimming lessons.
Teachers are often scared of teaching swimming, and this easy to use book written by an expert in the field will be invaluable.
