Emergency first aid training for school staff

This 6 hour course is intended for those nominated by their employer to perform the role of first-aider in a school setting. It is designed for school teachers, support staff and lunch   time supervisors to be able to take control and respond to a person/child who may become ill or injured (on or off site) in a safe, prompt and effective manner. Managing time is precious for schools; this course can be tailored around your school's needs and delivered on an inset day or two evenings after school.  

This course exceeds the requirements recommended by the Government document 'First Aid in Schools'. 


We can also combine this course with our paediatric blended (12) hour course and the use of an adrenalin autoinjector so staff are fully trained to deal with adult, paediatric and anaphylactic emergencies.  For more details contact the office  01249 569690 or e mail the team at admin@wiltshirefirstaid.co.uk
