In 1997, Paragon International School Cambodia (Paragon ISC), formerly Zaman International School, opened its doors. It is regulated by the School Board and is one of Cambodia's top bilingual and international schools in terms of teaching and service quality. The Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports in Cambodia, as well as Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE) in the United Kingdom, have both certified the institution. The CAIE curriculum is used in the International program, which takes our students from Primary to Secondary School and Pre-University. Moreover, the Council of International Schools has granted accreditation to Cambodia's Paragon International School (CIS). To satisfy the different demands of our student group, we offer an exclusive blend of national and international curriculum. Both the Khmer National Curriculum and the Cambridge Curriculum are used in the Bilingual program. Our curriculum provides students with an appreciation of Cambodian culture and its contribution to the heritage of the civilized world. There is a primary focus on internationalism, in order to develop open-minded world citizens with international perspectives, self-confidence, and conscientiousness. Paragon International University (formerly known as Zaman University) was established in 2010, as a new member of Zaman educational institutions (now under Paragon Education Company). In recognizing a global world and the need for global communication, since its inception, the language of instruction at Paragon International University has been English. With a commitment to excellence, Paragon International University strives to be a leading university in Cambodia with excellent teaching research and community services, so as to provide internationally-recognized programs and offers 11 undergraduate majors, under the departments of Architecture, Engineering, Business, and International Relations. Furthermore, Paragon IU offers 3 graduate majors: Master of Arts in International Relations, Business Administration and Master of Science in Management of Information Systems.

Birmingham

We are aware that not all children will want to become the next Olympic Champion, but we believe every child should have the opportunity to learn to swim and be given the key swimming skills to enable them to reach their maximum potential. Diamond Swim Academy will provide swimmers with the skill set required as well as retaining the all-important element of fun. We are two families that have come together to form Diamond Swim Academy. We all met though swimming and were all National or International Swimmers. As ex swimmers we know what is required at a fundamental level to ensure that swimmers are given the correct skills and opportunity to reach their potential. We are proud to say we offer that individualised service at Diamond Swim Academy. We purposely do not run lessons back to back to enable a 10 minute break between lessons. We do this as we anticipate that children may take longer to get in/out or that a parent/guardian may want to talk to the teachers to discuss their childs/swimmers progress. The 10 minute gap ensures each lesson gets the full half hour of quality teaching. At Diamond Swim Academy we work closely with the National Governing Body of Swimming, The Amateur Swimming Association (ASA) and use the British Gas ASA Learn to Swim Pathway and complementary awards, as the basis of our lessons. The British Gas ASA Learn to Swim Pathway is the overarching programme for Learn to Swim. Within this pathway, Diamond Swim Academy use the ASA Foundation Framework, ASA Learn to Swim Framework and ASA Adult Framework. Diamond Swim Academy also add additional elements to each framework depending on the swimmers requirements. Swimmers will work towards achieving a set of outcomes that Diamond Swim Academy have set in conjunction with the ASA awards criteria, before progressing up through our lesson programme. Once a swimmer achieves a set of outcomes we like to recognise their achievement with the relevant award which is made up of a badge and a certificate. These can be purchased for a small additional cost. When swimmers join Diamond Swim Academy they will receive a membership pack containing information about what to expect when being part of Diamond Swim Academy. The information includes details about what the swimmer will strive to achieve, pathways they can progress along, awards they can achieve and events that we hold throughout the year.

Sholfins Swim School

Bromsgrove

Sholfins Swim School CIC is a not-for-profit company born from a passion and love for swimming. We are extremely passionate about our community. Our aim is to try and remove as many barriers as possible, preventing our community of Redditch from learning to swim. The team at Sholfins recognise that due to the pandemic there has been a huge impact on children having access to water in their early years. A number of primary/middle schools have also been unable to provide this life skill to their pupils prior to the pandemic for several different reasons, therefore, falling short of the national curriculum requirements, through no fault of their own. Swimming and water safety has been a statutory element of the national curriculum for physical education in England since 1994. This means that every 11-year-old child should leave primary/middle school with the skills to keep themselves safe. Swimming lessons provide all children with vital skills to help with survival and this is no different for children with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND). By 2025, over 780,000 children with SEND will be in the education system. However, inequalities in the ability of schools and teachers to offer high quality opportunities for them to participate in PE, School Sport or Physical Activity still exist, with disabled young people twice as likely to be physically inactive as non-disabled people. The focus on the new revised Ofsted inspection framework is also an area of consideration for schools to bare in mind. At Sholfins we believe everyone should have the opportunity to learn to swim. All of our instructors are Level 2, Swim England qualified and have RLSS Lifeguard, First Aid and Safeguarding Qualifications. The team are passionate about teaching and ensure that each child is given the support and encouragement to become water confident no matter what age. We are registered with Swim England and follow the learn to swim programme and the School Swimming and Water Safety charter.
