First Aid for Schools (EPFA, Emergency Paediatric First Aid, 6 Hours)

All our trainers share a belief that “every child matters” and that a child’s health and safety at school is vital. We understand the challenges schools face therefore we try to be as flexible as possible when running these courses and bring a real benefit to the school.

We provide the opportunity to learn the key First Aid skills in a relaxed, enjoyable way. We encourage our students to share stories of their First Aid experiences.
