Return to list

What is the course about?

The Statutory Framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage is a document published by The Department for Children, Schools and Families and applies to Early Years childcare within England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The Statutory Framework states that 'at least one person who has a current paediatric first aid certificate must be on the premises at all times when children are present. There must be at least one person on outings who has a current paediatric first aid certificate

This is also helpful for first time parents and for parents wishing to gain a deeper understanding in First Aid for the young. The programme can be run flexibly to suit the employer

The course provides theoretical and practical training in First Aid techniques that are specific to infants aged 0 to 1, and children aged from 1 year old to the onset of puberty. Candidates will become familiar with the role of the paediatric first aider and be able to assess and react appropriately to an emergency situation.

This course is available on Wednesday 3 February, Course Code K0117J3FPC, 9.00am to 5.00pm. You can enrol online for this course.
