First aid inset training
We have developed the new First Aid Inset
Training for teachers and ancillary staff, so
that, should the worst happen in your school, any staff member can
confidently provide effective first aid. With
training taking place on your premises, learning first aid couldn’t
be more convenient.
Who should attend?
Teachers and school ancillary staff.
What they will learn?
First aid procedures relevant to a school environment.

Assessment and certification
Continuous assessment by trainer and a
St John Ambulance certificate, valid for 3 years,
is issued on successful completion of assessment.
Our vision is that everyone who needs it should receive
first aid from those around them. No one should suffer for
the lack of trained first aiders.
St John Ambulance is a leading charity, creating opportunities
for people to help their neighbours, friends and colleagues, by
giving first aid or personal development.
On-site training
We offer on-site training for all our courses. If you have a
minimum of six people our qualified trainers can come to your
premises and deliver a course tailored to your specific needs.
