Not a qualified Diver but at Oakham School

Dive Rutland is a PADI 5* Instructor Development Centre which offers all levels of PADI Training which includes training to Recreational, Technical and Professional Levels.

Oakham school club members benefit from discounts on a number of training courses i.e. Open Water course.

Training is provided with priority being given to those who are signed up for the Annual Dive Trip, which runs in the first week of the October Half Term.

Training is at a reduced price to the normal Dive Rutland pricing as Oakham School provides the pool to the dive club as an extra curricular activity. But Dive Rutland Standard Terms and Conditions for training apply.

All club members who do not have recent diving experience (within the last six months) are encouraged to undergo a Scuba Review. If you have not dived for two years or more then the more formal PADI ReActivate is strongly recommended and will be required to become an Oakham School club member.
