First Aid Training for Schools

Interactive First Aid workshops designed specifically for children and young learners.

First Aid Training for Schools has been part of the curriculum since 2020. Williams and Associates has partnered with schools and colleages for over 25 years to provide interactive, dynamic and engaging First Aid and Basic Life Support training for students of all ages, empowering them with the knowledge and confidence to take swift action to apply life-saving skills in any emergency.

Our First Aid Training for Schools courses are delivered by trainers with years of experience working with children and young adults. They are all certified with enhanced DBS and CRB checks. These sessions can be fully tailored to meet the specific needs of your school, ensuring effective first aid training for staff.

Courses can be delivered on-site as one off stand alone sessions, or broken down to deliver a full First Aid qualification over a term in shorter sessions.

Our "Mini Medics" First Aid Training for Schools course includes:

Primary Survey (DRABC)

Teaches how to assess danger, check for a response, clear the airway, check breathing, and maintain circulation to quickly identify and manage life-threatening conditions.

Secondary Survey

Explains how to carry out a full head-to-toe assessment after the primary survey, gather medical history, and monitor the casualty until help arrives.

Unconscious Casualty Management

Covers how to safely place a child or adult in the recovery position, monitor their condition, and understand when further intervention is needed.

CPR and AED Use

Provides practical training in CPR for adults, children, and infants, along with the safe use of Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) available in many school settings.

Choking Management

Demonstrates how to recognise and respond to choking in children and adults, using back blows and abdominal thrusts effectively and safely.

Severe Bleeding and Shock

Covers how to control external bleeding, apply dressings and pressure, and manage symptoms of shock resulting from blood loss or trauma.

Accreditation and certification

Mini Medics Certification for younger learners and fully accredited qualifications for young adults are provided on completion of the course.

We had a very good and informative session with our instructor, Ben, who taught us the fundamentals of basic CPR training. He was very detailed and clear throughout the session, and we are grateful for his help.
