Here in Germany we learn that in school in 3rd or 4th grade (ca 9-10 years of age).
For some reason I don't remember ever doing such a course. I never got a "Seepferdchen". I learned to swim on my own at some point or with help from my parents.
... unless there are not enough teachers, or not enough public pools, or...
The indoor pool I learned swimming closed a decade ago and since then there is no public indoor pool in the city anymore.
