Schools First Aid
About Our Schools First Aid Training Course
First aid is essential everywhere, but schools more specifically must have trained first aiders by law. Unfortunately, accidents can happen often and need quick action to prevent injuries from escalating. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure your school has trained first aiders within the organisation to ensure the safety of its pupils, teachers and workers.
Course Length
Our Schools First Aid training course runs for 6 hours and is completed over a single day. Our courses are structured to allow breaks throughout the day for learners to eat and rest.
Certificate Validity
Your Schools First Aid training course certificate is valid for 3 years. Before the certificate expires, you’ll need to re-enrol so that you can receive a new certificate. It’s also highly recommended that you take annual refresher courses to keep your knowledge up to date.
