This webinar will provide governors, headteachers and senior leaders with an expert insight into their responsibilities with respect to developing and implementing first aid provision for staff, pupils and visitors both in school or college, and off-site.

On 14 February 2022, the DfE updated their guidance on ‘First aid in schools, early years and colleges’; the first update since 2014. First aid provision must be available while people are on school or college premises. It must also be available when staff, pupils and students are working elsewhere on school or college activities including any off-site activity such as educational visits.

In this webinar, Samantha Kendall, experienced first aider and emergency medical technician with over seven years’ front line ambulance experience, explores what the updated DfE guidance on first aid requirements means for schools and colleges, what is recommended best practice and how senior school leaders can ensure compliance.
