STA Learn to Swim Program Singapore
Steady Swim School offers the internationally recognised STA swim program in Singapore for swim students of all ages to become safe, confident, and strong swimmers.
Developed by the Swimming Teachers’ Association (STA) based in the UK, the STA Learn to Swim Program provides participants with a progressive pathway to learn essential water safety skills and swimming techniques. The STA swim program also has specialised swimming courses for people with disabilities.
What is the STA Learn to Swim Programme?
The STA swim program is an incentive-based swimming curriculum designed to motivate young participants to improve their swimming and water safety skills through various stages of awards. There are five progressive stages of learning – as participants complete each stage, they will be awarded colourful, eye-catching certificates along with success trackers to track their progress and provide them with a sense of achievement.
At Steady Swim School, we have a team of STA-certified swimming instructors who make the learning process as fun and engaging as possible for young learners. We work closely with parents to provide updates on the progress of learners and celebrate their achievements when they reach key milestone awards.

My boy now has so much confidence and always looking forward to the weekly swimming class. Thank you!
What we appreciate most is how he builds confidence in his students while still maintaining discipline in the pool. My children genuinely look forward to every class with him — a true testament to his ability to connect with them.
