Welcome to our free resources for first aid
First- aid education has been included in the health curriculum for schools in England. Now, more children and young people will acquire the skills they need to save a life.
To celebrate the change, we're launching a brand: new teaching website. It's aimed at all schools in the UK.
We understand that, for some people, teaching first aid can be quite frightening especially if you've never done it before. So, we've designed these free resources to help you confidently deliver lessons in line with the new curriculum. Here's how:
●Each first- aid skill focuses on one key action.
●The teaching resources provide you with all the guidance you need.
●The resources have easy to follow lesson plans that save you time in preparing for your classes.
This new interactive learning website will include:
●a multimedia library with supporting materials you need for each lesson
●different learning activities for those aged 5-18
●a full curriculum mapping for the new requirements in England
How will it benefit learners?
Through all kinds of practical activities, learners will:
●have skills, confidence and willingness to act when someone needs first aid
●learn first aid for common injuries and what to do in a first-aid emergency
●develop basic life skills, including how to deal with challenging situations
●get other ideas such as kindness, safety and sharing learning with others
