🚨 Engaging, Practical First Aid Training at Stanground Academy ♥

We recently delivered a dynamic and hands-on first aid training session at Stanground Academy, and the feedback from both staff and students has been outstanding.

From CPR and defibrillator use to treating burns and cuts, participants gained vital life-saving knowledge through interactive, engaging activities that made learning memorable and fun.

What they had to say:
“The CPR and breaths, as well as the compressions – so much fun and really engaging.” – Jennifer Foster, Staff Member

“Learning the secondary survey and defib use were especially useful, also understanding specifics for infants and drownings. Sam was brilliant – professional, respectful, and instructive.” – Emily Begg, Student

“Being able to try things for ourselves – there was a great aspect of fun in the learning.” – Emma Lobley, Student

“Learning how to do CPR effectively and use a defib. The burns and cuts were especially relevant to my job role in catering.” – Charlotte Dulwich, Staff Member

At our core, we believe that first aid training should be interactive, empowering, and tailored to the real-life needs of both staff and students. Stanground Academy was a fantastic example of how effective, practical sessions can build confidence and competence across the school community.

We were thrilled to deliver a full day of engaging, hands-on first aid workshops at Hall Road Academy in Hull, and the response from both staff and students has been incredible.

From Year 1 through Year 6, students explored vital life-saving skills in a fun, interactive, and age-appropriate way. Our instructor’s enthusiastic and child-friendly approach brought first aid to life with outdoor scenarios, role-play, and practical demonstrations.

What the staff said:
“The children were all extremely engaged in such a vital life skills session. The instructor was very clear and child-friendly in his approach.” – Z. Baxter, Y6 HLTA

“A brilliant experience and opportunity for our pupils to take part in. Thoroughly engaging activities and clear demonstrations and instructions.” – Mr. Havercroft, Y5 Teacher

“The children enjoyed the interactive elements such as being outside, delivering blood to organs, and bandaging others up. I feel they have gained a lot of knowledge.” – E. Jones, Teacher

“The instructor we had was lovely — so enthusiastic and engaging for the children. A great variety of hands-on tasks helped deliver a clear message. I was really impressed.” – S. Fernie, Y2 Teacher

And from the students:
“I think I would make a good paramedic after today.” – A, Y6
“I am glad I know how to save someone now.” – J, Y6
“It has been a great experience.” – O, Y6
“I loved the hands-on activities and the chance to practise my skills.” – L, Y5
“I really enjoyed it because I got to learn all the things you need to know to help people.” – J, Y4
“I really enjoyed it because I liked the role play.” – A, Y2
“I think it was so fun and it helped us to know what to do.” – E, Y2

These workshops aren’t just educational – they’re empowering. We equip children with the knowledge and confidence to respond in real-life emergencies, in a way that’s engaging, age-appropriate, and unforgettable.

🚨There is only one Matt Hall! ♥

Here at First Aid Schools, we’re proud to be a small business. We keep it small because we care deeply about what we do, and know that children and adults alike deserve the best possible first aid training, so that if the need arises, they are equipped with the skills to help save a life. The partnerships we have built up over the past few years mean the world to us, and we are so thankful that we are able to return to the same schools and businesses time after time.

This is thanks to our fantastic team of first aid trainers. And speaking of a fantastic team, take a look at some of the awesome feedback we’ve received this academic year from staff over at our partners, Wickersley Partnership Trust, for the one and only Matt Hall, one of our brilliant first aid trainers.

“Matt is awesome!” – Alex Wassell (Risk & Compliance Support Officer – Wickersley Partnership Trust)

ℹ As our name suggests, we work with lots of schools and academy trusts throughout the UK, but did you know that we also cater for businesses and other groups, including community groups? We provide a personal touch to adult first aid training, too, and with only a handful of the best first aid trainers, you’re sure to receive excellent service.

Before the Easter break, we were fortunate enough to visit Loversall Nursery to deliver life-saving First Aid Training. Staff at this outstanding Doncaster nursery were due a first aid certification update, and our first aid trainer Matt was delighted to oblige. Matt was even asked to take part in a firefighting visit as part of his role at the provision.

As always, we had some fantastic feedback from our day at Loversall…

“Thank you. A fabulous First Aid course. Matt is very knowledgeable, approachable and linked the training to our practice. Although a serious subject area, it was made enjoyable.” – Debbie Clifford (Nursery Manager, pictured)

“Matt was a very good teacher and made the course fun & enjoyable for a Saturday.” – Louise Cutts (Nursery Practitioner)

All participants gave Matt Outstanding feedback, and rightly so!

🚨 Back at Howard Primary School – 5 Years and Going Strong! ♥

A couple of weeks ago we returned to Howard Primary School in Croydon for our fifth year of delivering first aid training – and once again, we were made to feel so welcome.

Every class took part in our age-appropriate workshops, and we were thrilled to work with parents this time around, too.

Here’s what some of the amazing staff had to say:

“Thank you Sam for another amazing few days. Pupils, staff and parents love the engaging workshops you deliver.” – Reena Ramakrishnan, Y2 Teacher
“The session was phenomenal – both engaging and informative.” – Mrs Willicombe, Y6 Teacher
“The session was detailed and tailored to the needs of the class. Sam built a great rapport with Y6.” – Amy Blackford, Assistant Head

And some brilliant words from the pupils themselves:
“It was a very useful skill to learn but also a lot of fun.” – Emily
“Sam showed us important life-saving skills. I now feel more confident with knowing CPR.” – Luke
“I like how we used the defibrillator on dummies.” – J
“I learnt a lot and had fun.” – S

Huge thank you to everyone at Howard Primary and well done on your newfound life-saving skills!
