SwimSafer Stage 1 Preparation
SwimSafer Stage 1 is part of Singapore’s progressive national swimming and water-safety programme.
Introduction to water skills
Stage 1 develops confidence and independence in the water, safe entry and exit, forward and backward movement, and personal water-safety awareness.
What preparation lessons cover
A coach can help a learner become comfortable putting their face in the water, recovering to a stable position, moving with control, and responding calmly to instructions.
Assessment readiness
PrivateSwimming.sg can provide preparation and skill development, but does not guarantee an assessment result. Confirm current requirements, registration routes and authorised assessment arrangements through the official SwimSafer resources.
