== Early life and education ==
Professor Swinton was born in 1957 in Liverpool. He spent his early years in Coatbridge and Cumbernauld. John attended Seafar Primary school in Cumbernauld . In 1972 he and his family moved to Aberdeen where he attended Summerhill Academy.
He received his nursing education at Foresterhill College in Aberdeen. His first qualification was as a Registered Mental Health nurse. His 2nd qualification was as a Registered Nurse for people with learning disabilities.
In 1990 Swinton began divinity studies at the University of Aberdeen. He received his Bachelor of Divinity degree with first class honours in 1994. He received his PhD from Aberdeen in 1997. While completing his degree he was a lecturer in practical theology at the University of Glasgow.〔 While still a PhD student, Swinton addressed the controversy in Protestant theology of how much participation in the church people with severe mental handicaps should be allowed. His 1997 article, ''Restoring the Image: Spirituality, Faith, and Cognitive Disability'', was described by Amos Yong as: "Rather than asking whether people with intellectual disability are religiously conscious or responsible, he inquires how they become religiously engaged."
