LINKS TO NATIONAL SWIMMING AND WATER SAFETY FRAMEWORK

The National Swimming and Water Safety Framework's ultimate goal is to increase the swimming and water safety skills of all Australians for lifelong safe and active participation in physical aquatic activities and recreation.

It sets out a core structure to enable people to develop the skills, knowledge, understanding, attitudes and behaviours they need to enjoy a range of aquatic environments safely.

The Framework is intended for those that influence the learning opportunities and experiences for swimming and water safety education and guides those responsible for developing, providing or selecting a swimming and water safety program.

The Swim and Survive program aligns to the National Swimming and Water Safety Framework and the curriculum ensures that participants have the opportunities to achieve development milestones of the Framework stages as well as the outcomes of the National Benchmarks.

There are a number of documents available to help Partners understand how Swim and Survive aligns to the Framework and to aid Partners to increase awareness of the Framework and the National Benchmarks to their customers.
