Swim Safer Stage 4 (Bronze): 6-Month Coach's Lesson Plan
Everything you need to run a full 6-month Stage 4 term — without writing a single lesson from scratch.
This coach's lesson plan takes you week by week through the entire Swim Safer Stage 4 (Bronze) syllabus: joining backstroke, front crawl, survival backstroke and breaststroke into one continuous 100m swim, the compact jump entry and forward somersault, extending sustained treading to a full 2 minutes, the feet-first surface dive and hoop swim, Sequence 4B's clothed swim and flotation rescue, and finally the throw rescue and a full mock assessment in Month 6.
Every 45-minute lesson is broken into the same five parts, so your classes run like clockwork: Warm-Up → Swim Skill → Stage 4 Progress Skill → Game → Cool-Down.
What's inside:
26 week-by-week lesson tables — one row per week, covering the objective, warm-up, swim skill, Stage 4 progress skill, game and cool-down at a glance
Full teaching detail for every Stage 4 skill — teaching points, exact coach cues, and class organisation, written once and referenced all term
A 6-month roadmap showing how the whole programme builds from the continuous 100m swim through to the mock assessment
A reusable activity bank of ready-to-run warm-ups, games and cool-downs — including compact jump rehearsal, somersault roll prep and the throw & call relay — each with teaching points and a ready-to-use coach cue
Equipment list and a 14-skill overview of everything the Stage 4 Progress slot builds toward
Who it's for: swim coaches and instructors teaching Swim Safer Stage 4 / Bronze (or any similar advanced learn-to-swim / lifesaving-adjacent syllabus building on Stage 3 technique) who want a done-for-you term plan instead of building one lesson at a time.
