Toronto residents can prepare for summer by learning to swim this spring North America’s Premier ‘Learn to Swim’ Provider Continues Canadian Expansion

British Swim School, the North American leader of “learn to swim” franchise programs, is pleased to announce the opening of its newest franchise location in Midtown Toronto at Brown Junior Public School, at 454 Avenue Rd. Franchise owner Priya Vadivel is excited to join the British Swim School family to continue to spread awareness about the importance of swim safety and offer another safe and convenient location for Toronto residents to learn how to swim.

British Swim School continues to expand its footprint in Canada, with swim lessons currently being offered in thirteen locations in Ontario. British Swim School of Toronto East - Scarborough at Brown Junior Public School serves the local Toronto and Scarborough communities.

“Owning a British Swim School franchise fulfills my entrepreneurial dream as a first-generation immigrant,” said Priya Vadivel, owner of British Swim School of Toronto East – Scarborough. “Having two young children of my own, I know British Swim School is such an important resource for families in the community. Our convenient location will help families ensure their children build confidence in the water by offering a safe space to improve swimming and survival skills.”

The opening of British Swim School of Toronto East – Scarborough at Brown Junior Public School is conveniently located to teach life-saving swimming skills to children (and adults!) in a fun and safe environment taught by trained swimming instructors – something owner and entrepreneur, Priya Vadivel, is passionate about. She also has plans to open a second location in Scarborough in late April to further serve residents in the community.

"Priya is a wonderful addition to the British Swim School family and a tremendous advocate of the importance of teaching children how to swim from a young age,” said Ashley Gundlach, British Swim School President. “Priya is passionate about swim safety, shares our corporate values, and believes in our mission-driven concept to teach children water survival skills and help reduce the number of accidental drownings. We are excited to officially welcome her to our family and wish her great success.”

British Swim School offers a three-part curriculum teaching children and adults of all ages - some as young as three months - water acclimation, safety and survival skills, and swim stroke development. While parental supervision is always the number one safety measure, research shows that participating in formal swim programs, such as those offered by British Swim School, can reduce the risk of drowning by 88% among children who are most at risk for deaths caused by drowning.
