The resumption of group children's swimming lessons is a matter for consideration and decision by the Government. No decision has yet been taken in that regard.
The Government recognises the important well-being and water safety benefits of swimming generally for people of all ages. Subject to final decision and the prevailing public health situation, the Government has already indicated that individual indoor training for all age groups, for all sports and at all levels may resume from the 7th of June.
Consistent with the public health advice to adopt a cautious and gradual phased reopening over May and June, with an emphasis on outdoor activity and a moderate increase in social contact, the Government will give further consideration later this week to these matters and will make further decisions in regard to the possible further lifting of restrictions on activity indoors.
